Officers have been carrying out extensive enquiries to locate her. They have been viewing CCTV in the area she was last seen and speaking to people who knew her.

Detective Inspector Paul Stewart said: “We’re becoming increasingly concerned for Janet’s welfare and are urging anyone who may have information about where she is to please come forward and pass this information on to us.

“Janet was last seen in the Ryhope area of Sunderland, however, we believe she could be anywhere in the country and possible be in a vehicle - although we do not what the vehicle is and would ask car hire company’s who may have hired a car to someone fitting Janet’s description to get in contact”.
