Police are appealing for public assistance to find a woman missing from her Pottsville home on the Far North Coast.

Natalie Schipp, 42, failed to return home from a beach walk at Hastings Point about 7.30pm yesterday (Sunday 27 December 2020).

Her family found her car about 9.30pm and alerted officers from Tweed/Byron Police District a short time later.
