AJ’s mother has released a picture of her son in the hope it helps someone come forward who recognises him.
Ajani Campbell
In mid-February police released footage of AJ seen running across Blackpool Road in Ashton-on-Ribble during the evening of Saturday 24 January.
Lancashire Police say they are very concerned for his welfare.
A spokesperson said: “Enquiries have been ongoing since AJ was reported missing, and we are grateful for all the help you have provided so far, and we would ask again for anyone who has seen him or who has any information to come forward and speak to us.
“There is no suggestion AJ has done anything wrong or is in any trouble and our focus is on trying to find him safe and well.”
AJ has links to Avenham and New Hall Lane areas of the city, as well as to Manchester and London.
Anyone who sees Ajani should call police on 999 and anyone with information about where he might be should call police on 101 quoting log 1159 of 25 January.

The aim was to make deposit amounts more consistent across various types of containers.</p><p> Come March, nearly all beverage containers will be covered by the program. For most containers, the deposit is 10 cents, while glass bottles of 500 ml or more will have a 25-cent deposit. This means when you buy a bottle of wine or a pack of bottled water, you'll pay a bit more upfront, but you can get that money back by returning the containers at one of the new drop-off points.</p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/C6oo7B9tkl1/?img_index=1" data-instgrm-version="4" style="background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);">
