Dorset police have launched an appeal to find a woman who has gone missing with her three-year-old son.

Sheralee White, 32, and her son were last seen in Bournemouth on the evening of Wednesday 3 January. Officers have asked anyone who sees her and her son to contact them immediately.

White, who is white with dark brown hair coloured red at the ends, was wearing a black leather jacket, grey scarf, black skinny jeans and black ankle boots.

Her son, who has not been named by police, has shoulder-length blond hair. He was in a black and red pushchair with a purple blanket over him.

Ch Insp Wayne Nock of Dorset police said: “We are carrying out extensive inquiries in our efforts to locate Sheralee and her son as we are becoming increasingly concerned for their welfare.

“I am appealing for anyone with information as to their whereabouts, or anyone who sees a woman matching Sheralee’s description with a young boy, to contact police immediately.

“I would also urge Sheralee, if she sees this appeal, to contact us immediately as we all want to ensure you are both safe and well.”

Anyone with information or knowledge as to Sheralee’s whereabouts is asked to contact Dorset police or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
