Family of missing man whose remains were found on riverbank make heartbreaking anniversary appeal

The heartbroken family of a man who went missing one year ago today (May 6) and whose remains were found on a riverbank almost eight months later have asked for help in understanding his disappearance and tragic death. Huw Williams, aged 25, disappeared from his address in Sherwood, Nottingham, on May 6 2021 and left without his mobile phone or belongings.

A national search found no trace of him, until January 2, 2022 when his remains were found on the banks of the River Severn near the village of Tidenham in Gloucestershire. Now, one year later, Huw's family has issued an appeal to people in the Gloucestershire, South Wales and Avon and Somerset areas who may have seen him before his death.

Huw's dad Steve said: "Nothing we can do can bring our beloved son back to us, but we at least hope to make sense of what happened to him – to understand when, where and how he died. As such we are appealing to anybody who may have seen him to come forward.
