THE organisers behind one of Suffolk's biggest music festivals have donated tickets to a charity to help raise the awareness of a missing teenager.

Mean Fiddler, the organisers of the Southwold-based Latitude Festival, has given a pair of tickets for the 2007 event and a cash donation to the National Missing Persons Helpline Charity to help renew awareness of Luke Durbin's disappearance on May 12, 2006.

The 19-year-old, from Woodbridge, went missing after he was separated from his friends after a night out in Ipswich and has not been seen or heard from since.

There have been extensive appeals for help in tracing him nationwide, but they have so far failed to provide any fresh clues as to his whereabouts.

To mark the year anniversary of Luke's disappearance and increase media awareness his mother, Nicki Durbin, is organising a silent auction of many prizes - including the pair of Latitude tickets.

The award-winning festival, which is held on Henham Park Estate, will return for its second year in the weekend of July 12 and 15.

Last year's fell on one of hottest weekends in history and saw performances by Snow Patrol and Patti Smith, book reading by Howard Marks and packed-out comedy and poetry tents.

It has since won awards for Best Festival, Best Alternative Festival and Best Festival Facilities on Digital Radio station BBC 6 Music.
