A 76-year-old woman from Noosaville who went missing on Sunday 18 May after being last seen in Noosa National Park has been found safe on Tuesday morning.
Investigations indicated Patricia Lascelles was seen in the Noosa National Park area around 5pm on Sunday.
SES Noosa local controller Warren Kuskopf said SES volunteers searched the national park Sunday night and all Monday along with members of the public.
“There were thousands of people out there in that park keeping an eye out,” he said.
“It’s impressive the community was so concerned.”
Patricia’s daughter Amy Lascelles sent a social media post Tuesday morning that her mum had been found and was okay.
“She was lost in the national park and people found her this morning calling out for help,” she said.
“I can’t thank everyone enough. All of the people walking and funning and sharing posts and sending glove and food and prayers.
“I saw you all and I feel so overwhelmed by everyone. From the bottom of my heart and from all of my family. Thank you!”
