Concerns are growing about the whereabouts of a mum and her three-year-old daughter who have been missing for four days. The pair, who are from Lancashire, are also understood to have links to Greater Manchester.
Amy Blackman and her daughter Evelyn Vine, are from Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire - but have not been seen since last Wednesday afternoon (March 23) at their home address. It is understood they also have links to Bury and Oldham, as well as Preston, Birmingham and Lincolnshire.
Police are now appealing for the public's help in tracing them and have said they are increasingly concerned for their welfare as the search to find them enters its fourth day. Amy, 29, is described as mixed race, 5ft 1in tall of slim build with dark brown curly shoulder length hair. She has a floral tattoo on her back.

Evelyn is described as mixed race, with brown eyes and light brown hair. She is petite for her age. Lancashire Police have said they are now "growing increasingly concerned for their welfare" and are asking anyone who sees them or has any information to make contact.
A post shared to the Lancashire Police Facebook page urged people with information to directly contact police, and also appealed directly to Amy asking her to get in touch with police in the chance she saw the appeal.
Anyone who can help is asked to call 101, quoting log 0741 of March 26.
