Concern is growing for a missing 12-year-old girl thought to have travelled more than 200 miles from home.

Police believe Falon indicated she had hoped to reach Liverpool, a significant journey from her home in Basingstoke, Hampshire. Falon was last seen in the Tadley area of Basingstoke at approximately 3pm on Monday March 9.

But her family became worried when they were unable to reach Falon and told Hampshire Police. Taking the rare move to issue an update to the press in the early hours of today, the force appealed for help from members of the public and shared a photograph of the missing child.

It is thought she had travelled to either Liverpool or London Waterloo, the latter a 50-mile trip from her hometown, but police say none of her relatives have heard from the youngster since Monday afternoon.
