Police have launched an appeal for information on the welfare of a missing mother and her two sons.

Samantha Baldwin, 42, from Newark, was last seen near Nottingham city centre on Monday.

It is believed she is with her children, Louis Madge aged nine, and Dylan Madge, aged six, who both also use the surname of Taylor.

The family have connections to both Lincolnshire and Manchester and may have travelled there, said Nottinghamshire Police.
