Police are appealing to the public for assistance to find a 12-year-old girl reported missing from the Sunshine Coast on Wednesday 7 February.
Police have been searching the area surrounding Anchorage Drive Park, Birtinya after the girl was last seen leaving a Birtinya property around 6.45pm on 7 February.
She has not contacted her family since.
Concerns are held for the girl’s welfare due to her young age and this behaviour being out of character.
