Madeleine McCann - we need YOUR help to try and find this little girl.

[ThisIsDavinaPleaseDoNotSwear]

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 just read all your messages and am anxious to help in any way I can. Have also been mailing pics and poster all over the world Canada, America, fuerteventura, Spanish hotels etc.
Just had a thought I wonder if internet providers such as Aol could be pursuaded to carry the poster or large picture on their Home/welcolm page.

Thinking about Eurovision, Terry Wogan's bit is only for the UK audience. I wonder if there's any chance that the presenters would say something. Who's the overall Eurovision organiser?

We received an email from The Sun today (they have our email address as DH registers for Fantasy Football) asking us to help - they must be emailing all the email addresses they have

Davina not recieved anything as yet,hae to go t bed now as ds will be awake in a few hrs and i have to do the night shift.I will come back tomorrow after the mile for maude walk

Sorry Debby, i have replied to you now. Sorry for the delay though

Good luck!

I have emailed all of the hotels that fall under the Hesperia chain in Spain.

Will try and think od some more

Sent to Costa Blanca News, Costa del Sol News, CB News Costa Almeria, CB News Costa Levante.

Petrol stations? Probably already been mentioned. Sorry, got no Spanish contacts.

if the suspected abductor is allegedly British i dont see why anyone who knows a Briton either living in Portugal or on holiday over there during that week (possibly still is on holiday) cant email contact info and photo to a dedicated unit in UK . Im sure we all think we dont know someone who would do this but these people have to be someones son/daughter, brother/sister, neice/nephew etc.

thanks Davina i will get on with it now

Terry Wogan could get to other people, though, if he wanted to help. And if enough people ask he will.

repost of translation as it's getting lost. I'm out all day but would liek to help.

OK everyone, I have now had the translations back. Thank you so much to Spanish Office who have very kindly done this

You will need to cut and paste and then download poster image from Sky News website

The text for the subject bar is:

?Continuando con la amplia cobertura en los medios informativos sobre el rapto de una niña de 3 años en Portugal, necesitamos su ayuda?.

The text for the body of the email is:

?tal como se ha informado ampliamente en los medios de comunicación, Madeleine McCann fue raptada de su cama en el centro turístico de Praia da Luz el pasado jueves 3 de mayo. A pesar de las extensas búsquedas llevadas a cabo en el área, la policía portuguesa no ha conseguido localizarla. Como la frontera española está muy cerca de esta área, se piensa que Madeleine podría haber sido llevada a España.

Necesitamos su ayuda para tratar de encontrar a esta niña. Por favor, haga circular este póster entre todos sus conocidos. Imprima una copia de este póster y colóquelo donde sus clientes puedan verlo. Por favor, si usted ve o ha visto a esta niña llame al número de teléfono que aparece en el póster adjunto.

Esta nena necesita a su mamá y a su papá. Por favor, ayúdenos a encontrarla.

They also said on sky news this morning that she could even been in northern africa so just shows how world wide it needs to spread.

It is Madeleines 4th birthday today so please keep her in your thoughts

While I was getting help from my dad last night with the haulage companies he told me how he has cut a photo of Madeleine out and put it in his wallet just in case he thinks he sees her. I think this is a good idea - maybe we could encourage people to do this too while we are distributing our emails and posters?

Just a thought to add to all the good work that's already going on!!

North Africa - oh dear, this is becoming a world wide search! I'm in Cyprus, maybe she is closer than I thought

Yep McDreamy just shows where ever you are or whoever you know in different countries contact them with the poster, she could be anywhere & this needs to be spread as much as possible.

I personally think she is not in portugal but for some reason i still think she is alive, i just wish they would give her back.

Has anyone else heard from anyone with regards to the poster etc?

ScoobyDoo, there is a poster that Mrs Spoon linked to in an earlier post that can be translated into various languages.

Is that the one you mean?

No sorry i am confusing you.

I mean has anyone heard back from anybody who has been emailed about putting these posters up & handing them out etc?

Nothing for me yet just a couple of antomated responses

automated

Oh Ok!

I haven't heard anything back either.

I guess a lot of offices are now closed because of the weekend which is a shame.

It's good the hear there are a lot of posters up in Gibraltar. I think it's possible Madeleine has been taken to North Africa to lie low before trying to bring her into the UK when media coverage has died down. Presumabley there wil be very little media coverage of this in N' Africa. Somthing to think about.
