Police are appealing for public assistance to help locate missing Broadford woman Carolyn Furlong.

Police have been told the 51-year-old left her home on The Parade to visit a friend in Broadford between 10pm and 11pm last night and has not been seen since.

It is believed Carolyn is driving her white Mitsubishi Outlander, registration 1IM 2XK and does not have her mobile phone switched on.

Police and family have concerns for Carolyn’s welfare due to a medical condition that requires medication.

Investigators have released an image of Carolyn and a similar image of her vehicle in the hope someone may recognise her.

Anyone who sights Carolyn or may have information on her whereabouts is urged to contact Seymour Police Station on 5735 0200.
