Farmer's son, James Corfield, has been missing from The Royal Welsh Show since Monday night. James is 19 years old and from Montgomery.

Please see Welsh news for more details.

There has been a big plea on Ravelry about him, he's a friend of a friend.

If you do social media at all, please share one of the links.  Many of us must know someone who was at the Royal Welsh, one of them just may remember something, or have a picture on their phone, anything.  And by now, he could be pretty much anywhere, so sharing any and everywhere may just help.

Thank you for that link, Sally.

He is from a local farming family and was in my son's year at school.

Just hoping that he can be found safe and well soon.

So, seconding that Sally, please share folks.

Yeah I saw this yesterday on Twitter, shared it. Really shocked to read it tbh... :o
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

Thank you everyone.

I've been talking with my mutual friend.  She says it is very comforting to the family and friends to know that the word is being spread widely.  They are feeling so powerless.  So even if you think none of your contacts could possibly know anything, please share anyway and ask them to share.  Who knows where the link may turn up which releases that one tiny bit of information...

Is there a link to a Facebook page that I can share?
Not very good at all this sharing so make it simple  :)

I've found the poster but can't share to my groups.

Thanks Penninehillbilly.

I'm rubbish at links but if you type 'Montgomeryshire Young Farmers' into the FB search bar you'll find posters and info to share.

Maybe Sally can help with a link????

Thanks WBF.

The police have requested responsible sharing on social media to spread the word.

Thank you Rosemary.

I can't imagine what they are going through.  :'(

The whole community is desperate for news. A vigil of support for his family was held in Montgomery this morning.
