“Although South Wales Police and Mountain Rescue searches have been undertaken and will resume following the bad weather, we are asking people particularly in the Pant area to help us by checking their sheds and garages.

“Also, if you visited the Brecon Mountain Railway Thursday or Friday during half term and think you may have seen him please do call us; you will not be wasting our time, Maldwyn’s disappearance is causing great distress to his family and we really do need your help to try and find him.”
