READERS have shared their relief after news that a teenager who was missing for days had been found.

The family of Leven Sopwith-Nicholson, 14, from Ulverston, were pleading for help to find him for days before he was found yesterday.

A spokesman for a Facebook group set up to help find him said: "We really need to thank everyone for their efforts.

"Three days in these conditions is a long time and today was particularly tough on his family.

"They have remained positive but this is the best possible outcome.

"It is time for them to be together in private now.

"The running and walking community have been amazing and the support nationwide has blown us away. The only thing that matters is he is home."

Police thanked all those that shared the appeal.
