This is slipping from the news and the police are starting to scale down their seraches.

Evidence seems to suggest that Madeline may have been taken to Spain and yet very few people out there are aware of what has happened or what she looks like etc.

We need to send as many emails as we can to Spanish businesses with a poster attachment and highlight this case.

I need mumsnetters to volunteer.

I have called in sick today to get this started but this is a massive task and I cannot do it on my own.

Please let me know if you can help.

I've been going through the customer service route or general enquires route as I thought someone would have to read it. Good point though

Has anybody asked MN to put links to the two posters on the home page?

McDreamy · 11/05/2007 21:02

Well I'm off to bed now as it's 11pm already here! Well done Davina, what a great idea, I hope between us we have made a small ripple in Europe today . Fingers crossed. Goodnight

wannaBeWhateverIWannaBe at 20:43:57 : Good point. For large corp, I am assuming that best if someone from within the firm makes appeal to LOCAL country exec of firm, for example, to send approved email to generic mail list. But I see that it could be tricky to get approval to send to ALL employees of large global multinational. Posting on firms intranet would be great but I could see large firms not wanting to set a precedent.

Most of all focusssed on Reuters and Bloomberg and getting some traction so far.

I was flicking through thinking I know nobody but do know some poeple in TNT who own one of the European post services? Would it be worth sending one to them?

ToughDaddy · 11/05/2007 21:10

Leaving work now. Good work and good night

Astrophe · 11/05/2007 21:17

I've posted in 'site stuff' to ask for links to the posters on the MN homepage

I e-mailed the link top the press officer at TPG, who own TNT and several European postal services- they must see an awful lot day to day, and asked him to consider distributing to his staff.

Hope that helps in some small way and well done all of you

snowwonder · 11/05/2007 21:36

you are all fab.......

during the holy and jessica case lorry's from soham had there details on the side with contact phone numbers, so getting this done would be a fab idea, but i wouldnt know where to begin with this idea...

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:39

E-mails to all the haulage companies would sort that I would think, they're a firendly industry.

You'd need the big European ones- I can find out from DH (curently ensconced in his TNT office) who they are if that would help?

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:40

Even better- RHA (road Haulage Association)!

hang on a mo.....

snowwonder · 11/05/2007 21:41

that would be great - many thanks, i would be happy to try and take on that task..

DrNortherner · 11/05/2007 21:46

Spanish DMC's will be a good one. They will have hundreds of local conatcts - restaurants, places of interests, hoetls etc. I have a huge list at my office but I'm not at work. Here are some off the top of my head.

here

and here

Could someone send these? My home email is crap and always fails to send. Thanks.

I am also thinking of the multi national hotel chains - Marriott, Hilton, Starwood, Le Meridien etc.....

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:49

Willc all DH and get the big anmes from him now

Have e-mailed the RHA as well, more publicity the better.

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:53

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:54

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:55

(Not being lazy my e-mail starts peachesandcream so looks a bit suss to anyone who doesn't know us LOL)

ChocolateFace · 11/05/2007 21:56

I don't, but does anyone have contact with British forces overseas? This could be a way of getting posters into other parts of Europe.

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 21:58

DHL

ThisIsDavinaPleaseDoNotSwear · 11/05/2007 22:03

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 22:05

tis is apparently the biggest

this also?

Surely if someone like macdonalds had posters in all thir testaurants it would cover a LOT of people

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 22:05
