POLICE in North Kent are appealing for information about the whereabouts of a missing teenage girl.

Hannah Reader, 15, was last seen in Gravesend town centre on Tuesday, June 19. She was on her own and police are increasingly concerned for her welfare as she has failed to make contact with her family.

PC Steve Mannerings, the North Kent missing person liaison officer, said: “We would urge anyone who sees her to contact the police immediately.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact PC Mannerings at Gravesend police station on 01474 565295 or 07870 252511.
