Leonore, aged 81, was last seen leaving her nursing home at Hunter Street, Hawthorn, with a walking frame about 7.20pm yesterday. She was heading in a northerly direction.
Police and family have concerns for her welfare because she has dementia.

Police have released photos of Leonore in the hope that someone can provide information on her current whereabouts.
