A Noordhoek family has made an appeal to community members to help look for their missing family member Gus Thompson, who has Alzheimer’s, and disappeared last Thursday, 14 July.

The 70 year old left home at about 6pm on Thursday, and was last seen coming down Chapman’s Peak towards Hout Bay at about 8pm that evening.

His son James Thompson says Gus will probably be very disorientated and might ask for his wife Gigi.
