According to a social media post from BBC Radio Shetland in 2017 Joshua moved from Yell in Shetland to the Lincolnshire town in 2011.

BBC Radio Shetland reported that Joshua studied IT at a local college before deciding to travel around Europe. It is understood that his mother dropped him off at a Spalding train station to start his journey. After sporadic emails with his family he hasn’t been in touch since January 2014.

The other case in the Spalding area is of Duy Nguyen who went missing aged 15 on December 4, 2016.
