Mum-of-two Georgina was last seen on March 7, 2018, at the Clifton Food and Wine off-licence in Clifton Road.
Despite Sussex Police announcing it was treating the investigation as a homicide, Andrea has never given up hope of finding the 33-year-old alive.

“It doesn’t get any easier. It probably gets a bit harder, because the longer it goes on you lose a bit of that hope.
“People do say to me ‘isn’t it about time you started moving on?’, but how can I move on when I have not had any answers?
“For us, the hope still goes on. I will never move on, I need answers. It’s living every day with that hope and living in this story – you are living in it all the time. It never goes from my mind.

On Sunday’s anniversary, Andrea will be hosting a Facebook Live from 6pm giving updates on the search.
Georgina’s sister will read a poem she’s written, she said, and there will be an update on a podcast series she has been working on with journalist Donal MacIntyre.
Focusing on the perceived failings in Sussex Police’s investigation, the podcast has been delayed due to Covid-19 but it is hoped it will be released by the end of June.
