Inspector Gary Ritchie, Cathcart Police Station, said: "Janet has never been missing before and although she is from the local area, due to her dementia, she will not know where she is.
"Despite her age, she is sprightly when walking and likes to visit charity shops. She can chat away but won't completely understand what's being said.
