Angus Robert COOKMAN

Tasmanian Police are searching for a 23-year-old north-west man who has been out of contact with his family and friends for almost three weeks.

Angus Robert Cookman from Latrobe is believed to have been visiting the Launceston area, including Longford.

He is about 180 centimetres tall, of muscular build, with brown eyes and hair and a fair complexion.

Inspector Lachie Avery says there are concerns for Mr Cookman's welfare.

"He simply hasn't made any communication with any of his family or any of his friends, and he has probably got a tendency to be a bit of a loner," he said.

"What we are imploring is that he makes contact with his family to tell them that he is safe."
