The mother of missing Isle of Wight teenager, Damien Nettles, has given her blessing to an event taking place in Cowes on the 20th anniversary of his disappearance.
Organised by Lynn Hammond, Islanders are invited to join others to walk the route Damien took on that fateful cold wintry evening on 2nd November 1996.
A volunteer, of similar build to Damien and wearing identical clothing, will follow the route Damien took to try to jog people’s memories.
Caroline said,
“We need to ascertain what happened to Damien after the last confirmed sighting on the High Street in Cowes.
“Please wear suitable clothing. We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible.”
To take part, meet at the Cowes Floating Bridge (Cowes side) at 7.30pm on Wednesday 2nd November 2016.
