Thomas Clark, who's 84, has been seen since the morning of Thursday the 23rd of March.

Officers have been checking CCTV to trace his movements and it's thought Mr Clark boarded the 201 bus at Whitemoss Avenue in the town around 11.30am.

The bus was heading out of East Kilbride in the direction of Airdrie.

He is described as a white man, 5ft6” in height, slim build and with white hair.

When he was last seen, he was wearing a long brown/mahogany puffer jacket, brown leather shoes, a checked jumper in grey with blue and green diamonds on front, a black beanie hat and grey padded gloves with black leather palms.

Sergeant Nicola Hope, based at East Kilbride, said today: ''Our enquiries have determined that Mr Clark did board the 201 First Bus travelling in the direction of Airdrie. We would ask anyone who was on that bus on Thursday at around 1130 hours to think back. You may have seen Thomas Clark, or witnessed the stop that he got off the bus.

Our enquiries are ongoing to trace Mr Clark. Officers are continuing to assess CCTV and are liaising with local transport providers. I want to thank everyone who took the time to share our social media appeals and I would ask that you continue to do today. Any information that you have could be vital in tracing Thomas Clark safe and well''
