REBECCA FONTAINE WOLF
Georgina Gharsallah, 31, was last seen leaving a shop near her home in Worthing, Sussex, on 7 March 2018. Police described that she was holding “a number of mobile phones”.
Georgina’s two sons, aged eight and nine, have started to wave to photographs of her and say “hello mummy” – it is the closest they can get to her right now.
Georgina is one of 17 missing people whose portraits will feature in a new exhibition which opens next week. The show called Unmissable has been organised by the charity Missing People which supports the family of missing people. Someone is reported missing in the UK every 90 seconds.
Two men were arrested on suspicion of murder after Georgina went missing but were later released with no further action.

The exhibition in London will also include new portrait of former Manic Street Preachers guitarist Richard Edwards who has been missing since 31 January 1995. His sister Rachel Edwards says she hopes the work/exhibition will help raise awareness for the charity which has supported her family since it was founded.
