A 74-YEAR-OLD man missing from his home since last Wednesday has been found safe and well.

Lateef Sanyaolul-Osba was last seen by his son about 8am on Wednesday sitting in the front garden of his home in Sandhurst Road, Catford.

Mr Sanyaolul-Osba suffers from dementia and is sometimes confused and may not be aware of his surroundings.

He was found by police in Southwark earlier today and is recovering at home with his family.
