The organisers of a Facebook page set up to find a man missing for 41 days are offering a cash reward for "solid evidence" which helps locate him.

Dan Venes, 31, from Canterbury, was last seen at about 6pm on August 14 in the College Road area of Margate.

A ‘Help find Dan Venes’ page set up on Facebook has amassed more than 2,100 followers, with several people reporting potential sightings of Dan. None have so far been confirmed.

Now, the organisers are offering a reward to anyone who has key information which leads to him being found.

A post states: "It’s been 40 days + [and] we have nothing confirmed to be Dan. £1,000 is now up for any solid evidence that leads us to Dan.

"If you think you see Dan, please stop what your doing and call for help. Try to take a picture and message us here as there may be people we can send close to where the sighting is."

His dad, Jason Joiner, previously said the talented artist and musician has not used his bank card since he was last seen and that there have been no confirmed sightings of him.

But he said his family and friends are “hoping and praying” he will be found.

Prior to his disappearance, Dan had been picked up at Sturry Railway Station by police due to concerns for his welfare.

He was taken to the QEQM hospital in Margate, but is believed to have left soon after.

Dan was captured on CCTV in Margate a short while later - but has not been seen since.

Multiple suspected sightings have been reported of him on the 'Help find Dan Venes’ page, but he is yet to be found.

Dan is 5ft 9ins tall, with a slim build and short, dark hair.

He also has a short beard and was last seen wearing a red and black checked shirt with black jeans.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police by calling 101 and quoting reference number 14-1230.
