“Due to the passage of time since she was seen or spoken to, we are now becoming increasingly concerned for Samantha.
“I would urge anyone who has seen Samantha or knows of her whereabouts to please contact Dorset Police.
“I am also keen to hear from anyone who may have seen a woman matching the description given over the last 24 hours to please call.
“Finally, if Samantha sees this appeal I would ask her to please get in touch. We and your family are very worried about you and we just want to know you are OK.”
