Interestingly, a GR member has the name in her tree with matching birth year, but birthplace 'Unknown, Australia'

Contacting her might prove fruitful. Nothing lost by trying!

Has your cousin added herself to the Adoption Contact Register? If not she can find out how to do so here:-

https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records/the-adoption-contact-register

If her half sister decides to look for birth family and she also adds herself to the register then they can be put in touch with each other.

She could also find her half sister's birth on FreeBMD and can add a postem (a message) so that if a family member looks for the birth they will see your message.

Hi I am posting on behalf of my cousin who is looking for her half sister who was adopted shortly after being born
D.O.B 27th March 1945. Catherine Ann Tolfrey.
Mothers name Henrietta Tolfrey
Catherine was born in 48 Washbrook Road Cosham Portsmouth.
On Catherine's birth certificate it states she was adopted so assuming this was done officially.
