The father of missing university chef Claudia Lawrence has walked part of her route to work, handing out posters appealing for the public's help to find his daughter.
Peter Lawrence visited a parade of shops in Melrosegate, on the outskirts of York, with family friend Martin Dales and handed out flyers to businesses and the public.
Solicitor Mr Lawrence took to the streets a day after he made an emotional appeal for help to find his daughter as detectives said they could not rule out the possibility she had been abducted.
Miss Lawrence, 35, of Heworth Road, York, was last seen on Wednesday afternoon at the University of York's Goodricke College and later spoke to her parents on the phone.
North Yorkshire Police believe Miss Lawrence disappeared at around 5.30am the next day after she left home to walk three miles to her job as a chef at the college.
Miss Lawrence took no money, bank cards or her passport and her family said her disappearance is out of character.
On Monday Mr Lawrence said the family was trapped in a "living nightmare" as he appealed for his daughter's safe return at a news conference.
He is planning to spend some time walking around the area Miss Lawrence would have travelled on her way to work on the morning she vanished.
His A4 sized posters feature a picture of 35-year-old Miss Lawrence and the words: "Have you seen her?".
There is also a police telephone number for the public to call.
