A KENT schoolgirl who went missing more than a week ago has been urged to get in contact with her family.

Police say they are concerned about the welfare of Zoe Brown, 15, who lives in the Medway area.

Zoe was last seen by her sister on Monday, November 12, at New Brompton College, Gillingham.

She sent a text to her grandfather later that evening, but she has not made contact since. Zoe is white, 5ft 5 with slim build and has long brown hair and brown eyes.

She was last seen wearing a white school shirt with a pink t-shirt underneath, black trousers, a waist-length green parka-style coat and black shoes. She is also wearing a silver necklace with a letter Z on a pendent.

Sgt Gavin Lee said: “We are concerned about Zoe’s welfare and want her to make contact with us or any member of her family.

“Zoe’s grandmother is very worried and wants Zoe to know that she is not in any trouble. Her family just want her home safely.”
