A missing child featured in the Missing People Choir’s live appeal on the Britain’s Got Talent final has been found safe and well.
Photos and names of dozens of missing people were projected above the stage during the choirs performance on the semi-final and final.
A 13-year-old boy, who is remaining anonymous at the request of the family, saw his photo and is now “home safe and well”, according to the charity.
The choir was formed by the Missing People Charity and is made up of friends and relatives of people who have gone missing. It is also backed by Kate McCann, mother of Madeleine McCann.

Clare Cook, who is co-founder of Missing People Choir, said, “We are delighted to announce that a 13-year old missing child who we appealed for on Britain’s Got Talent during the Missing People Choir’s performance saw his appeal and called his mum”.
“He is now home safe and well”, Clare continued.
The Choir’s performance has also resulted in a contact to the charity’s 24/7 helpline team which has provided a significant lead in the search for missing Tom Moore, who was 31 when he was reported missing 14 years ago. Tom’s image was also shown behind the Choir during their performances.
Since the Choirs first audition in April, they have raised almost £7,000 through their fundraising campaign, which is still open for donations.
