It is now seven days since Laurel Aldridge was last seen leaving her home in Walberton near Arundel.
This was the last sighting early on Tuesday 14 February (Valentine’s Day) of 62-year-old Laurel who is considered to be very vulnerable.
Do you remember seeing Laurel walking in the area of Walberton that morning?
She was last seen wearing a grey puffer jacket, a turquoise fleece, a maroon tartan scarf and a brown hat. Laurel is around 5’4” with grey/blonde highlighted hair and sometimes wears glasses.
Since she was reported missing, we have conducted house to house enquiries and search team officers with dogs have searched a significant area of rural West Sussex.They have been joined by the NPAS helicopter, drones and the volunteer specialist Sussex search teams.
Chief Superintendent Howard Hodges said:
“We would like to thank the public for the information which has been provided to us thus far. Our officers have been working around the clock pursuing multiple lines of enquiry and are determined to find Laurel.
“We are working closely with Laurel’s family, offering them support and providing them with regular updates on the investigation. They too have also appealed for information to help find her.”
If you see Laurel please phone 999 immediately or if have any information about her whereabouts please call 101 quoting Operation Accrue.
