A 15-year-old girl has gone missing after visiting a friend in Croydon earlier this month.
Kayleigh Lodge, from Ticehurst in Sussex, was due to return home on Sunday March 15 and was reported missing by her family on March 18.
The teen is believed to still be in the Croydon area, and police are now appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
Kayleigh is white, of average build and about 5′ 6″ with blue eyes and brown shoulder-length straight hair.
PC Sally Agutter said: “We are concerned for Kayleigh because of her age and the fact that we don’t know where she has been staying since the weekend.
“There is no evidence that she is in danger but we need to find her to make sure she is ok.
“If you have seen her or you know where she is, please contact us urgently.”
If you have any information call 101 quoting serial 369 of 18/03 or email [email protected].
If you see Kayleigh and believe she is in danger, call 999.
