Myvy is described as being of dual heritage, around 4ft 11in tall and of slim build.

She has brown curly hair with pink or red streaks and may be carrying a Nike backpack.

Officers believe the teenager may have since travelled outside South Yorkshire and are becoming increasingly concerned for her welfare.

A South Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “Enquiries are ongoing to find her but we are now appealing for the public's help as officers grow increasingly concerned for her welfare.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact South Yorkshire Police online or by calling 101, quoting incident number 327 of July 13, 2026.
