Update – Friday 26th January, 3pm: Lucy Carter has been found safe and well. Thanks to all those who shared our appeal to help locate her.


Avon and Somerset Police has launched an appeal for information after a 14-year-old went missing from her home in Wellow near Bath yesterday, Tuesday 23rd January.

14-year-old Lucy Carter went missing from her Wellow home between 10pm on Monday night (22nd January) and 7am yesterday morning (23rd January).

She is white, 5ft 5ins tall, of medium build, with long brown hair. It’s thought she may be wearing black and white Nike trainers and black jeans which are laced from the calves to the ankles.

She may have got a bus out of the Avon and Somerset area and so officers are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen her in and around Bath Bus Station.

The police say they know Lucy uses social media and would appeal directly to her or to any of her friends she may have contacted, to get in touch with them.

If you see her, phone 999 and tell the call handler you are phoning in relation to log 111 of yesterday (23rd January).

If you have information about her whereabouts phone 101 quoting the same reference.
