Police are “increasingly concerned” about the welfare of a missing woman who disappeared while walking home in London.

Sarah Everard, 33, went missing while walking to her home in Brixton, south London, from the nearby Clapham Junction area on Wednesday evening.

The marketing manager had been at a friend’s house in Clapham when she left the property in Leathwaite Road around 9pm, exiting through the back gate onto the A205 South Circular.

She is thought to have walked across Clapham Common and was expected to arrive home around 50 minutes later.

Friends of Ms Everard said she spoke to her partner en route around 9.30pm, but has not been heard from since. Her last known location was near Clarence Avenue.

In a statement, Ms Everard’s family said: “With every day that goes by we are getting more worried about Sarah.

“She is always in regular contact with us and with her friends and it is totally out of character for her to disappear like this.

“We long to see her and want nothing more than for her to be found safe and well.

“We are so grateful to the police and all our friends for all they are doing.

“We are desperate for news and if anyone knows anything about what has happened to her, we would urge you to please come forward and speak to the police. No piece of information is too insignificant.”

Police are asking people in the following areas to check doorbell or dashcam footage for any sightings of Ms Everard:

Detective Chief Inspector Ian Kenward said: “Sarah’s disappearance is completely out of character and understandably her family and friends are incredibly worried.

“We are also growing increasingly concerned for her welfare and have officers working round-the-clock to try and find her.

“I would ask anybody who was in the Clapham Common area on Wednesday night to think about whether you saw Sarah or any suspicious activity around the time of her disappearance.”
