Fears for two missing 11-year-old girls who disappeared in Derbyshire as police launch appeal

FEARS are growing for two 11-year-old girls who are missing Derbyshire.

Friends Constantia Carr-Winterburn, of Whaley Bridge, and Lillie Almond, of Dove Holes, were last seen when they left their homes for school this morning.

The families of the girls, who attend the same school, say they have not heard from them since.

In a statement, Derbyshire Police said: “We are very concerned for their safety and we would ask you to share this appeal and to contact us if you have any information as to their whereabouts.”

Constantia is described as white, 5 foot 4 inches tall, slim, and having blonde or mousey shoulder-length hair.

She left home wearing her school uniform – a white shirt, a black quilted coat, black trousers, and black shoes – and carrying a rucksack.

Lillie is 5 foot 7 inches tall, slim and has blonde hair which was tied back when she left home.

She went out in a black skirt, black tights, black trainers, a white polo shirt, and a red coat.

Police said the two are thought to be together.
