Lorna may be carrying a black bag and have a blue walking pole.

Sergeant Leigh Brown said: “Although Lorna does not have any known connections in Fort William, she has travelled to the area and we are keen to speak to her to make sure she is safe and well.

“She has visited shops in Fort William so I am asking anyone who is out and about in the area to keep an eye out for her. Likewise, if guest houses, hotels and hostels have any information about her whereabouts please get in touch.
