National Missing Persons Day is an annual day of commemoration and takes place on the first Wednesday in December each year.
The third National Missing Persons Day commemorative ceremony took place on 2 December 2015 at Farmleigh in Dublin's Phoenix Park.
Missing Persons Day complements the existing International Missing Children’s Day and has a number of objectives. It commemorates those who have gone missing and recognises the lasting trauma for their families and friends. It also draws attention to open or unsolved missing persons cases, and creates an opportunity to provide information on available support services.
