The 77-year-old was last seen at IRT’s Dalmeny Care Centre on Ruth Place last Thursday at 4pm.
Mr Speechley, a former boilermaker, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's about a year ago. He became a resident of IRT’s Dalmeny Care Centre on July 4 when his health declined.
He is described as being of Caucasian appearance, about 175cm tall, of medium build with grey hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing jeans and a dark jacket with a pyjama top underneath.
Police have been told a man similar in description to Mr Speechley was seen on the Princes Highway, Dalmeny, shortly after 4pm on Thursday.
A red/maroon, four-door sedan, similar to a Honda Accord, was stopped nearby and it is possible the driver might have seen Mr Speechley in the area.
Police are appealing for the driver of the car in the released image, and anyone who was travelling north on the Princes Highway through Dalmeny at that time that may have picked up a man fitting the description of Mr Speechley, to contact them.
Mr Speechley may have attempted to travel to the Wollongong area.
Anyone with information: Crime Stoppers, 1800 333 000.
