POLICE in Hillingdon are appealing for help in tracing a vulnerable missing woman.

Bronwyn Davies, 60, was last seen at her home in West Drayton, on the morning of Thursday, January 1. She was reported as missing later that day by her daughter.

Mrs Davis regularly walks the same route of the Grand Union Canal and around the Packet Boat Lane area and marina with her family dogs. She is well known in the area.

Her family are concerned as Mrs Davies is Type 1 diabetic and has no insulin with her, nor an inhaler, which she uses regularly.

Mrs Davies is described as 5ft tall, with grey hair pinned up which makes it appear short. She is of a slim and frail build and has green eyes.

She was last seen wearing a black rain mac, cream/grey woolly hat, navy blue wellington boots with a dog-type pattern and was holding a black backpack.

It is not believed she has any money with her nor a phone.

Anyone who has seen Mrs Davies or who knows of her whereabouts is urged to call the Missing Persons Unit on 0208 246 1710 or 0208 246 1732, or police on 101.
