There are voluntary organisations, often charities, that can actively help
you search for people. One of the most well-known is the Salvation Army's Family
Tracing Service
Please note - an organisation may be
able to offer help in some cases but not in others. For example, some
non-specialist organisations cannot offer help in cases of adoption. You can
normally check whether your search would fall within the scope of the
organisation's service by reading the details on the organisation's web site
