An Avon and Somerset Police spokesman said Alford may have returned to Weston-super-Mare, where he used to live.
He is described as white, about 5ft 8ins tall, slim with short brown hair.
Alford is serving a four-years-and-nine-months prison sentence for burglary and possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.
