Urgent appeal to find missing Harrogate teenager who has not contacted family in over a week

Lucy has not been seen by her family in Harrogate since May 15 2021, when it was believed she was heading to Leeds to stay with a friend.

Furthermore, she has not been in touch with family by text message or social media since May 22.

It is not known what clothes she had on when she went missing.
