Police are searching for a 29-year-old mother with suspected mental health problems who has gone missing from her north London home with her five-year-old daughter.

Scotland Yard said today there was "no indication" where Sacha Williams and her mother may have gone.

Maxine Williams was last seen on Saturday night at their home address in Edmonton.

Scotland Yard said officers were growing "increasingly concerned" for the pair's welfare, adding there were fears that Maxine may be suffering from mental health issues.

When they were last seen, Sacha was wearing a grey coat, a pink jumper and trousers, grey tights and black shoes, police said.

The five-year-old - who is black, slim and about 3'0 - was also wearing a purple cap with a picture of a girl and the name Sophie printed on it. Her hair was plaited with a green hair bobble and red band in it, police said.

Maxine is described as a slim black woman with long black hair. She is of afro-Caribbean heritage and about 5'3".

Anyone with information can contact police on 101 or Missing People on 116000 quoting reference 15MIS010150.
