Thankfully Aziza has been found. (Added by MNHQ at request of the OP)… to ask any London-based Mumsnetters to help find my missing cousin?

Thankfully Aziza has been found. (Added by MNHQ at request of the OP)

https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/west-end-theatre-seven-dials-cambridge-theatre-b1208650.html

My cousin Aziza went missing during a theatre trip in London with family yesterday. She has learning difficulties and I suspect just decided during the intermission that she wanted to leave and walked out without speaking to anyone.

She has no coat, phone, or money and it has now been more than 24 hours in freezing temperatures.

We are working closely with the police but would welcome any help in spreading the words in case someone remembers seeing her.

Here is the Met Police tweet if anyone is on Twitter/X and is happy to share for reach: x.com/metpoliceuk/status/1886133033230606604

Urgent search for missing vulnerable woman last seen leaving West End theatre

Aziza Daley went missing the day before her 37 birthday

@mumsnet any way of helping this to trend?

Best way is to keep posting on it.

I'm assuming the police will be trying to track her via CCTV, and will have info on where she might head (route home eg train/coach station, places she might want to see).

I note that the police tweet says that if seen, call 999.

Wishing for a positive outcome for you.

I would think she is relatively easy for someone to spot and hopefully assist - according to the linked article, she's without a coat and non verbal so I would hope that a kind stranger would notice her vulnerabilities - especially as she has been out all night.

This is what we are hoping.

Our concern has been that if someone tries to speak to her, she will not want to engage with them and is likely to walk away so we are trying to spread the word so people know to call the police

Bumping for you. Hope she is found soon x

SquirmOfEels · 02/02/2025 21:27

I'm in London, not that bit of it, but will be keeping my eyes open anyhow.

Small mercy is that as London is a 24 hour city, she may well have found somewhere warm.

AwakeNotThruChoice · 02/02/2025 21:27

You’re in my thoughts, I hope she’s found safe and well as soon as possible x

Hope she found soon x

DearOwl · 02/02/2025 21:31

Yes, I can imagine that's really tricky for you if she would actively avoid telling someone she was in trouble.

I have a relatively large following on Facebook -well, 160,000 - and you'd be welcome to share a post in my group if you think it might help. Loads of Londoners in the group. PM me if you think it may be of use
