A WOMAN has been missing from her North Yorkshire home for nearly a fortnight – sparking a police plea for help.

Detectives are appealing for the public’s help in tracing Leanna Jane Robson, 33, of Strawberry Dale, in Harrogate, who has not been seen since Thursday, April 7.

She was reported missing by her mother and her family and the police are becoming increasingly concerned for her welfare.

The last sighting of Leanna was outside Harrogate District Hospital where she spoke to a neighbour.

She is described as white, around 5ft 3ins tall, with a slim build, blue eyes and shoulder-length dark brown hair, which she often wears in a ponytail.

She also has a birth mark on the top of her right thigh and a tattoo around her belly button.

PC Casey Blair, of Harrogate police, said: “Leanna is vulnerable and is known to suffer from depression and we need to know where she is and that she is safe and well.”

Anyone who has seen Leanna or knows where she might be is urged to phone police on 0845 6060 247.
