Police have issued an appeal for information in a bid to trace a missing child from Stoke Newington.

They say they are “increasingly concerned” for 12-year-old Ivana Simmons.

She is described as 5ft 4” tall, of slim build with brown shoulder length hair.

When last seen she was wearing pale blue skinny jeans and a white long sleeved t-shirt.

She has never been missing before and is considered vulnerable due to her young age.

Anyone who has seen her is being advised to call the Hackney Police Missing Persons Unit on 101.

Miss Simmons is the fourth young person to have gone missing in Hackney in the past month.

Updated on Wednesday 14 August 2013 at 2pm: Ivana Simmons has now been found safe and well, police have confirmed.
