A £1,000 reward is being offered for anyone who helps police find a teenage girl who went missing three months ago.

Paige Chivers, 15, walked out of her family home in Longford Road in Bispham, Blackpool, Lancashire, after an argument on 23 August.

She was last seen boarding the number 11 bus at Ashfield Road, Bispham, with a blue or purple suitcase.

Paige is white, 5ft 5in (1.65m) tall, with brown hair and a "Playgirl" tattoo on the back of her neck.

She usually wears gold hoop earrings and has two small sovereign rings.

Family 'concerned'

A local businessman has offered the reward to anyone who can provide information that helps to find Paige.

The businessman wishes to remain anonymous.

Paige's father, Frank Chivers, made an emotional appeal for his daughter to get in touch last month.

Posters of her have also been put up across Blackpool by police.

Det Ch Insp Neil Esseen said: "We are grateful to the local business for offering this reward and hope that somebody will come forward with information.

"Paige has been missing now for three months and her family are very concerned."
