Police are appealing for assistance from the public to trace the next of kin of an older man who died at an address in Sale.

Leslie Sewell died at a property on Church Lane on Monday, July 29.

Mr Sewell was 79 years old when he died.

Greater Manchester Police have said there are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding his death.

In UK law, there is no definition of next of kin, but it is understood to be the closest relative, whether a partner, parent, child or sibling.

Anyone with information about the next of kin of Mr Sewell is asked to contact the Police Coroner's Office on 0161 856 7978.
