Two 12-year-old girls, who've been missing since Wednesday, are believed to be together.

Morgan Gillett (left) and Joliebelle Wheeldon (right) both went missing after initially attending school in Worthing at 08:30 BST on July 12, but left together soon after.

Morgan is white, 5' 2", of slim build with very long straight brown hair and brown eyes. She is thought to be wearing a red PE top with her name on the front, a black Adidas jumper and black leggings or skinny jeans.

Joliebelle is white, 5' 2", of medium build with shoulder-length blonde hair and is wearing a grey top, blue jeans and Adidas Superstars trainers.

It is thought that they may be in the Shoreham area, but could have travelled elsewhere. There are concerns for their welfare because of their age.

Anyone who has seen them or has information about their whereabouts is asked to email 101@sussex.pnn.police.uk or call 101 quoting serial 251 of 12/07.

A man from Haywards Heath is campaigning to force a social media site to remove material which promotes self harm and suicide.

Richard Harrington attempted to take his own life five years ago.

He says other people on Tumblr made him feel he didn't deserve to be alive.

The social media site has not responded to a request from BBC South East for a comment.

If you have been affected by this and would like advice or support - visit the BBC Action Line where you can find information on issues surrounding self harm.
