Valerie Nettles was born in the UK and grew up in the Isle of Wight before her family immigrated to the US when she was fifteen. She married her American husband, Ed, a manager with an international freight company, after meeting him at University of New Orleans. They would go on to have four children, including Damien, who was born in Singapore in 1980. The family lived between the UK and the US, following Ed's work, but settled in the Isle of Wight in 1990 to raise their four children. Five years after Damien's disappearance, due to job commitments, the family made the heart-wrenching decision to move. Valerie and Ed returned to the US, and currently live in Texas. Valerie has never left the UK far behind due to the ongoing issue of a missing son in the UK and liaises with police and other organizations involved in this issue. Valerie is petitioning the UK Government to implement better risk assessment in missing cases; suggesting more communication between police and the families left behind to cope. She is an active advocate for missing cases across the globe. Please check out Damien's Law on via @DamienNettles or Justice for Damien on Facebook. She is a Community Ambassador with Missing People Charity in the UK and supporting them in their ongoing research & development and understanding the needs of families in the missing issue. Recently Valerie has teamed up with Locate International, who are experienced, seasoned, ex-police officers who recognize and acknowledge the need for assistance with this issue which affects many families, not all, of the missing. Locate is an advocacy organization for much needed liaison between families and police in long term missing cases. This will go far to bridging that gap of communication that so many families find themselves in after a loved on is missing.
