The last known sighting of Jo was on Thursday, December 5 last year when she travelled from Fareham to Southampton, with a friend.

Police first appealed to the public on the 17 April to help with their inquiries.

A detailed search of the area surrounding Empress Road, Southampton, took place in early August.

Officers have spoken to numerous witnesses, friends and associates of Jo to try and find out where she might be. Jo does not have a permanent address and she doesn’t own a vehicle. She does not have a bank account.

Police have said that it is not unusual for Jo to go for long periods of time without speaking to her family, however she hasn’t been in touch now for a very long time and they are becoming increasingly concerned about her.

Anyone has seen or spoken to Jo since the last sighting of her in December or has any information that might help find her can call 101 and quote Operation Blackboard.

Alternatively people can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
