Hi, I’m looking for advice. I have a friend who lives in Greenwich, London (SE10, near the River Thames). We normally talk through Discord, but he hasn’t been online for several days now.
The thing is, I don’t have any other contact details — no number, address, or email — and since I’m far away, I can’t check on him in person.
Does anyone know if there’s any way to check on someone in the UK when you only know their general location? What can you do if you don’t have their phone number or address? Are there hotlines, agencies, or services that could help in this kind of situation?
Any advice or suggestions would really mean a lot. Thanks you so much. 🙏
PS: I’m worried because he’s been going through some mental health issues, and I’m scared he might hurt himself.

If you know his name call the non emergency line for the police and ask them to do a welfare check ?
Google international dialing code etc.
Good luck, hope it’s nothing x
