Police are appealing to the public for help to find a missing 35-year-old woman.

Elaine Rogan was last seen in the Hunterfield Terrace area of Gorebridge at around 5.30pm on Tuesday, 2 February. 

Described as white, 5ft 2 in height, with a slim build, she has brown eyes and black hair in a short-straight bob.

Elaine also has a distinctive navy blue Scorpion tattoo on her left shoulder, which is the size of a 50p.

With suspected links to the Penicuik and Mayfield areas of Midlothian, it is thought that she may have travelled there.

Inspector Andy Hill, of Haddington, stressed such a disappearance is out of character, as is not making contact with family or friends for an extended period of time.

He added: "We're appealing for anyone who may have information regarding her whereabouts, or has seen a woman matching her description since last Tuesday, to come forward.

"If Elaine sees this appeal I would urge her to get in touch with us or her family, who are very worried about her." 

Anyone who can aid the investigation is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101.
