The children of a woman who vanished a week ago are “extremely upset” and want her back home, police officers have said.
Karen Stevenson, 42, left her home in Lairds Hill, Seafar, Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire, some time after midnight on Saturday, February 19.
The mum-of-two walked towards the town centre and was seen in a lift at the shopping centre around 2.44am.
She then walked towards Muirfield Community Centre, near Brown Road and Fleming Road, and was there at around 2.55am.
Karen hasn’t been in touch since then, with police becoming "increasingly concerned" for her welfare.
Officers spoke to locals in Cumbernauld a week on from her disappearance.
A total of 53 cars and 20 pedestrians were stopped in and around Fleming Road between 1am and 4am on Saturday in the hope of jogging people’s memories over Karen’s movements.
Sergeant Greig McKail said: “Karen’s family, including her two children, are extremely upset by her disappearance and just want to know she is safe and well and want her home as soon as possible.
“Extensive searches and enquiries have been carried out throughout the local area in an effort to trace her.
“These are continuing and we’ve been assisted by resources including specialist search advisors, and the dog unit.
“Officers have also been carrying out house to house enquiries and checking CCTV.
“Karen always stays close to home and has never been missing before.”
Karen is described as being 5ft 1in, slim build, with long brown hair. She was wearing a purple parker-style jacket with a black fur-lined hood, a cream long-sleeve T-shirt, black leggings, and black ankle boots.
She also may be carrying a small pink handbag, with metal studs and a chain strap.
Sgt McKail added: “As time passes we’re growing
