A woman has issued a desperate plea for help after her partner has not been seen in two days.
Kelsey Mulcahy says it's exceptionally out of character for Joseph Day not to respond to her phone calls or be in touch. The couple were due to go to Bath Spa today but he has not been seen since Saturday night.
She is now 'terrified' that something has happened to the 31-year-old. Kelsey had travelled to London on Saturday but was texting Joseph until 9:30pm when he suddenly stopped replying.

"I cannot stress enough how out of character this is for him," said Kelsey. "We have been together for five years, he wouldn't do this to me, we have a very happy relationship we were both looking forward to going to Bath today.
"I'm terrified something has happened."
The couple moved to Clifton in January from New Zealand and do not have many friends in our city. But Kelsey's friends have now travelled over from London to help search for him.
His sister Olivia said: "Please help us find my brother - Joseph Day - a missing New Zealander in Bristol. Joseph has been missing for 35+ hours and is deemed low priority by the local police but he is NOT.
"His family feel helpless overseas and can't stress how out of character and HIGH RISK this is. What if you were told your loved one wasn't a high priority and is 'low risk'?"
A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset Police said: "I can confirm that Joseph was reported missing to police yesterday evening and we are investigating."
He is described as 5'11" athletic build, with tattoos on both his forearms. He may be wearing black high top Nike trainers, a long black wax jacket and a blue Seattle Mariners baseball cap.
Anyone with information should call 101 quoting reference number 5222103145.
