POLICE are appealing for help to find a 36-year-old mum.

Margaret Blair - known as Maggie - of Pall Mall, Chorley, has not been seen since 9.30am on Monday at a bus stop near her home.

She is white, 5ft 1in, slim, with short straight auburn hair and was wearing a beige Ellesse zip-up jacket, blue jeans and white Kappa trainers.

Insp Ian Roberts: "We are growing increasingly concerned as Maggie has not been seen since Monday.

"There appears to be no reason for her to go missing and her 16-year-old son and close friends are at a loss to why she should do so.

"She's never been missing before and we're very concerned that some harm may have befallen her."
