A TEENAGER from Suffolk who had been missing for nearly a week has been found safe and well.

Harriet Church-Jennings, 14, whose family live in Sibton, near Saxmundham, was found alone and unharmed in the Camden area of London at about 11.30pm on Sunday, June 11.

There had been a lot of media coverage following Harriet's disappearance on Monday, June 6, and the teenager was spotted by a door supervisor outside a pub.

Police were called and she was taken into protective custody at Kentish Town police station.

Following what was described as a “minor” family row Harriet left home in Epsom - the family have a weekend home in Surrey - at about 7.10pm on Monday, June 6, and there had been no contact with her until she was spotted outside the London pub.

Yesterday morning Harriet was reunited with her father, Martin Church, in Ruislip.

Chief Superintendent Richard Morris, of Surrey police, said: “I am relieved that Harriet has been found safe and well, especially as it has been over six days since she left home.

“This has been an intense investigation and I would like to praise the dedication of the officers from Surrey police and our colleagues from the Metropolitan police, Suffolk police and Thames Valley police.”

Harriet's mother, step-father, and father, have all said they do not wish to comment on their daughter's disappearance. No one has been arrested in connection with Harriet's disappearance.
