Close friends are renewing their appeal to help trace the whereabouts of Ronald Ellis, who previously worked at Sauna Sauna.

Ronald, 32, was last seen on the May bank holiday weekend in 2010, when he left his home on Winnington Lane, Northwich.

At the time of his disappearance, he was described as around 5'9" tall, of proportionate build, with brown eyes and short brown hair.

Ronald was a family man, he absolutely adored his brother, and had several close friends, so for him to just disappear and never return left all those close to him totally heartbroken, and they are committed to doing all they can to find out what  has happened to him.

He was also a well-respected employee at Sauna Sauna and was also well known amongst the gay community in Cheshire, Manchester and Blackpool.  Ronald would often dress as his drag performer Fanny Allcock and enjoyed entertaining others.

As part of the investigation, we are appealing for information from anyone who knew Ronald, or anyone who worked at or visited Sauna Sauna at the time of his disappearance.

We would urge anyone with any information, no matter how small, to contact Cheshire Constabulary.
