The family of missing woman Alice Byrne have issued a fresh appeal for information one week on from her disappearance, telling her: "We want her to know how much we miss her."

The community of the Edinburgh suburb has stepped up to help with the search, posting pictures and asking local residents and businesses to check their CCTV for any clues as to where Alice has gone.
However, with no further sightings reported and detectives scouring for clues at the seafront, the family has issued a new appeal urging the public to come forward if they think they might have any information.
In a statement issued on their behalf by the police, the family said: "Alice has been missing for one week now and we are shocked and distressed by her disappearance.
"She always keeps in contact with us so we are extremely worried because we have not heard from her. We are desperate to know where she is.
"If Alice sees this, we want her to know how much we miss her. We just want her home safe and well.
