Concern over missing woman with dementia
Joan Redman, 76, has senile dementia.
It is not known exactly when she went missing from her home in Upper Boundstone Lane, Sompting, because her husband is too ill to talk to police but her daughter is very concerned about her welfare.
Police believe she may have left the house at breakfast time today (Wednesday, September 28).
Joan may be heading for the Hove area.
