Inspector Ian McColl said: “Patricia is known to often go for walks on the island, however she has never been away for this length of time.

“Her family has failed to locate her as have island and mainland police officers. There is concern for her safety and efforts are continuing in a bid to trace her safe and well.

“I would urge anyone with any information on her whereabouts to contact Irvine police office on 101.”
