Family 'worried sick' about deaf teenager last seen on train to Cardiff

Police are "increasingly concerned" about the well-being of a deaf teenager last seen heading towards Cardiff. Tammy, aged 16, from Congresbury, was seen on CCTV at Yatton train station on Saturday, July 2, where she travelled on the 11.38am train towards Cardiff via Bristol and Gloucester.

Tammy is described as white, with brown hair and eyes. She is deaf and lip-reads. She was last seen wearing a maroon cardigan with floral embroidery, dark blue roll-up jeans, and black Dr Martens boots with pink laces.

Police say it is not in Tammy's character to be away from home and out of contact with her family, and a family member states they are "worried sick". Concerns continue to grow as she does not have access to her regular medication which could impact her health.

UPDATE: Tammy has been found safe and well, police confirmed on Wednesday afternoon

In the appeal, Detective Inspector Tristan Hawkes said: "It’s out of character for Tammy to be away from home and not in touch with her family.

“We are increasingly concerned for Tammy’s wellbeing as she is not believed to have access to the medication she regular takes, which could impact on her health and require her to need treatment.

“Tammy, if you see this appeal, please get in touch to let us know you are safe.”

If you have any information regarding her whereabouts, call 101 quoting reference 5222157845.
