Police are appealing for help in tracing a 25-year-old Ipswich woman who was reported missing on Monday.

Officers were contacted by a relative of Natalie Hart who reported he had not heard from her for several weeks.

Police attended addresses linked to Ms Hart and, when she was not at any of these, began enquiries to find her.

Following this initial investigation there is believed to have been a positive sighting of Natalie in Bramford Lane, Ipswich on Monday afternoon.

Her family are concerned for her well-being and police are asking anyone who may have information about where she is now to get in touch.

Natalie is described as white, around 5ft 5ins tall, of slim build with long brown hair and blue eyes.

Anyone who may have seen her in recent days or anyone with information about where she is now is asked to call the duty sergeant at Ipswich by dialling Suffolk police on 101.
