Police in Ayrshire have issued a renewed appeal to trace a missing woman who left her family home without warning in the early hours of Friday morning.
Lisa Haining, 50, disappeared from her home in Dundonald, around three miles south-east of Irvine, some time on January 20 and was last seen in the Castle View area of the town. The mum is described as 5ft in height and of slim build, with dyed blonde hair and darker roots.
When she was last seen she was wearing black leggings, an olive-green shirt, brown jacket and white trainers. She may be driving a white Renault Twingo hatchback bearing the registration plate SJ65 JXP.

Emma wrote: "She doesn’t deserve to be alone, to be scared, to not know her family just want her home like always. I would describe my mum as the backbone the strongest person in our little family.
"Look in places you may think she may have wanted to hide. You are loved by more than just our wee family, you have the people’s hearts too and they want you home…so please come home."
Officers have learned Lisa is a regular visitor to Oban and are liaising with colleagues in the Argyll and Bute area in case they can assist. In the meantime, Inspector Paul Richmond of Ayrshire Police Division has asked members of the public who may have any information to get in touch as soon as possible.
Insp Richmond said: “Despite extensive enquiries, searches and previous appeals, we have yet to locate Lisa. We
