The 14th September this year is the Missing People charity's "Together to Remember" event, in which a minute of silence will be held by the memory tree in London for all those who are missing.
Thank you
When Andrew went missing, one of the things I noticed was how much quieter the house became. I imagine that those who have been bereaved find the same. Suddenly conversations are missing, the sound of someone else's voice and activities in the house. It is a major aspect of the sudden and inexplicable emptiness a loved one leaves when they have gone. The 14th September this year is the Missing People charity's "Together to Remember" event, in which a minute of silence will be held by the memory tree in London for all those who are missing. This day is also the 10th anniversary of Andrew's disappearance and to mark this day I have decided to carry out a sponsored silence to reflect the impact of a decade without our son. On 14th September I shall not utter a word for 10 hours; an hour for each year. How the first days became weeks, months and now years is difficult to comprehend for us as a family Any sponsorship money raised will go to the charity Missing People who have provided us with so much support over these years and do so much invaluable work finding missing loved ones and reconnecting them where possible with their families. It is in this 10th year that you may have seen Andrew's face on Missing People's Find Every Child campaign posters. Please consider sponsoring me. The amount is not important. Lots of people pledging 10p an hour to keep me quiet will add up quickly to a significant amount for the charity. Thank you, Kevin Help Us To Find Andrew and every other missing child.
Thank you

It is great that Kevin's sponsored silence is receiving such superb support well ahead of September 14, 2017. Part of his 10 hours of silence that day will be spent collecting at Doncaster Railway Station. I urge everyone who can to support his latest effort to raise funds for Missing People. Thank you Kevin.

hi kevin sorry to hear about your situation. i couldn't help but wonder why Andrew went to London in the first place. then i came up with this theory. On the 14th of sept 2007 a heavy rock band called ( Thirty seconds to mars ) were playing at the brixton o2 academy. The band is very similar to Muse. If he was going there whoever he was meeting up with could have offered him a lift home afterwards hence the one way ticket. i hope this is helpful and you find out what happened to him soon.

Thank you David for taking an interest in Andrew's case. This theory has come up before, but after such a long time there is no way of knowing /checking whether this is the case or not. Sadly there has been no verified sighting of Andrew since he went missing and no evidence of what has happened to him.

Just want to reassure Jennifer and others that the picture circulating from Shopify is not Andrew. However, thank you for taking an interest in his case.
