Police search for missing mum and daughter

The disappearance of a Leopold mother and her two-year-old daughter just before Australia Day has led police to call for public help to find them.

Megan Hughes, 35, was last confirmed seen with daughter Lilly-Ann Carroll at her Leopold home on January 25.

Investigators believe Ms Hughes was also seen at her workplace on January 27 but has not been seen since.

Police and family held concerns for their welfare due to the length of time they had been missing.

Investigators today released an image of Ms Hughes and Lilly-Ann in hope someone might recognise them and provide information on their current whereabouts.

They urged anyone with information about them to phone Geelong Police Station on 5225 3100.
