Will you help us, help Madeleine?

Turning Stones for Madeleine is a group of volunteers who work to support the Find Madeleine campaign in the search for Madeleine McCann. Madeleine was three years old when she went missing whilst on holiday in the Algarve, Portugal in May 2007.

Fortunately, there are many cases of abducted children being found and returned to their families - even after long periods of time. The vital piece of information that leads to a happy and longed-for reunion is usually thanks to a caring and vigilant member of the general public, often recognising a face from a poster. In fact, 1 in 6 children are recovered after being recognised from a poster! It is for this reason that we must continue to remind people of Madeleine and the fact that she is still missing. We are extremely grateful therefore to everyone for downloading and displaying a poster - It could be the poster that brings Madeleine home.
