Staffordshire Police

Samantha Eastwood, a Midwife at the University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust has been missing since Friday.

Staffordshire Police are appealing for information about Samantha Eastwood, 28, a Midwife who was last seen on Friday (27 July) at 7.30am in Stockton Brook, Stoke on Trent.



Both Samatha’s family and her NHS colleagues are said to be extremely worried and say her disappearance is “very much out of character”.

The Police say Samantha is white, 5ft 3in, of medium build and with shoulder-length ginger hair. She has brown eyes, a fair complexion with freckles.

Liz Rix, Chief Nurse, University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust, said: “We are appealing for anyone who has seen or heard from Samantha to get in touch with Staffordshire Police.

“Samantha is a much loved and valued member of the UHNM family and her Maternity Centre colleagues are very concerned.


“Samantha has worked as a midwife at Royal Stoke for six years and not turning up to work on Friday 27 July was very much out of character.

“We are working closely with Staffordshire Police to help find Samantha and we are providing support to her close colleagues.”

Anyone with information about Samantha’s whereabouts is asked to contact Staffordshire Police on 101, quoting incident 940 of 27 July 2018.

We will update this article as new information becomes available.
