A public appeal has been launched to locate a missing Fenland woman last seen getting into a taxi at her home.  

Lorraine Hiam, 68, was seen outside her property in Church Road, Christchurch, near March, at about 3.30pm on Wednesday (November 27). 

It is believed she may have got the taxi to a bus station and travelled to the Norfolk area, possibly Lowestoft.  

She is described as white, 5’ tall, medium build and wears a short blonde wig.  

Lorraine was last seen wearing a long blue coat and carrying a bag with a Christmas design on it which had a tent and sleeping bag in it. 

Det Insp Gavin Sylvester, from Cambridgeshire Police, said: “We have been carrying out numerous enquiries however we now have limited information which we can follow up, therefore I am asking for the public’s help to report any possible sightings of Lorraine. 

“At the moment we have been unable to trace where she got a taxi to, however we believe she may have gone to a bus station and travelled to the Norfolk area, possibly Lowestoft.” 

Anyone who has seen Lorraine since Wednesday or who has information concerning her whereabouts should call 101 quoting “incident 235 of 28 November” or use the online webchat service.
