Missing People Launch New Campaign

09 December 2010

Our charity partner, Missing People has launched a new Missing Rights campaign.

 

They are asking the Government to give families of missing people the same rights as victims of crime.

 

If your house is burgled you get emotional, practical and legal support. But if your child goes missing, you may get nothing at all.

 

When someone goes missing, the family left behind often suffer heartache, stress and depression.  Some are forced to give up their jobs, can end up in debt, and even have their homes repossessed.

 

People's Postcode Lottery supports the Missing People charity in England, Scotland and Wales.  Our players have raised over £960,400 for the organisation. That money is helping the charity provide a lifeline for people who have gone missing, support the families left behind and campaign for change.


You can support the Missing Rights campaign on Facebook and Twitter.
