There are serious concerns held for the welfare of an Alstonville teenage girl who's been missing since yesterday.

15 year old Clancy Ellis was last seen walking along Maple Drive around 10:30 AM.

She was reported missing by her parents after they were told the girl had left school and didn't arrive home.

Police said they are worried for the 15 year old's safety as she left her medication at home and has no access to money and limited clothing.

Police also said the girl's disappearance is out of character.

Clancy Ellis is known to frequent Alstonville's shops but police believe she could be travelling north or south along the coast.

She's around 170 centimetres tall, with a thin build, blue eyes, long dyed red hair and the right side of her nose is pierced.

She was last seen wearing a school uniform with a maroon hooded jacket.

Police urge anyone with information, or who know the whereabouts of Clancy Ellis, to contact police via Crime Stoppers.
