Lucy Stemp, 28, a hair and beauty worker from Tonbridge, vanished after traveling to France for a music festival. Her family and friends have launched urgent appeals for information as concern grows for her safety.
Disappearance in Paris
Lucy is believed to have traveled to France for a festival in Brest before heading to Paris. Her last known location was the Bercy district of the French capital.

Please share, her family are distraught."
