Finding people in the UK couldn’t be easier. If you’ve lost contact with a family member or friend and would like to get back in touch, we can help. With access to over 200 million records, our people finder search engine will help you find old friends and relatives.

If you’re planning a wedding and you’d like to have a childhood friend or long lost relative you haven’t seen for years to share your special day, or perhaps you were in the forces and lost contact with a group of friends you’d like to get back in touch with; it might even be a school or family reunion you’re planning and you need to have up-to-date address details to send out the invites. If so, we can help you find people you have lost contact with and re-connect by simply using our people finder.

How to find someone

It's easy to get going; just type in the name of the person you're looking for, and click search. The minimum information needed is an initial, and a surname. Please note, entering a commonly used name such as John Jones may retrieve more results than our system is able to display. You can refine your search by entering further information such as the location.

What if my search to find family and friends is unsuccessful?

Your first attempt to find a person might not prove as successful as you might have hoped, however we do recommend you remain positive and persistent as our data is continuously updated and you should resume your search through our people finder solution.
