Police are growing increasingly concerned for the welfare of a vulnerable woman from Gloucester and are renewing their appeal to the public for help in finding her.

Julie, aged 56, was last seen leaving an address in Saint Catherine's Court in Tredworth at around 1pm on Monday 5 May. 

Officers have pursued multiple lines of enquiry, however so far they have not resulted in any further information to help locate her.

They are now urging people who live in the Tredworth, Robinswood and Linden areas to check their gardens, sheds and outbuildings and to look under hedges and tarpaulins today.

Julie is described as being white, 5ft 6ins in height, of a large build with long black hair that has grey running through it. She was wearing a black long-sleeved top, black leggings, black slip on shoes and carrying a handbag when she was last seen.

Residents in those areas are also being asked to check their CCTV and doorbell footage for anyone matching that description.

Anyone with information or who may know of Julie’s whereabouts is asked to contact Gloucestershire Police on 101, quoting incident 265 of 7 May. If you can see Julie at the time of calling, please ring 999.
