OFFICERS are appealing for information about a 15-year-old girl missing from home in Bacup.

Megan Pilling was last seen last Thursday at her home in Gladstone Street at around 8pm.

She was described as white, of slim build and around 5ft 1ins tall. She could possibly be wearing a black leather jacket, police said.

Officers are concerned for her welfare and are asking anyone who may have seen her to get in touch.

Sgt Joanne Daly of Rossendale Police said: “If anyone knows of Megan’s whereabouts, please contact us as soon as possible.

“Similarly, Megan, if you are seeing this, please call us or a friend or family member to let us know that you are okay.”

It is thought that Megan has connections to the Rochdale area.

Anyone with information should call police on 101.
