Madeleine Campaign Shifts Up A Gear

Madeleine McCann's parents are distributing a new poster of the missing four-year-old.

New poster distributed in Spain
Kate and Gerry McCann are in Huelva in Spain, close to the Portuguese border.

They are putting up posters of Madeleine across the city exactly three months after her abduction.

Madeleine's mother has already distributed the posters in shops around Praia da Luz, the Portuguese resort where she went missing.

Kate McCann said: "Gerry and I want to remind people that our lovely little girl, Madeleine, is still missing."

The McCanns are hopeful that the new poster campaign will help in their search for Madeleine.
Writing on his blog, Gerry McCann said: "The figures from the National Centre For Missing & Exploited Children show that one in six kids are recovered after being recognised from a poster.

"Such statistics do encourage us that relatively simple measures may be effective in helping us find Madeleine."

The McCanns travelled along the main motorway between southern Portugal and Spain, which some believe could have been the route taken by Madeleine's abductor.

The couple are also visiting the cathedral in Huelva to pray for their daughter's safe return.
Madeleine's parents have taken their campaign to Spain before, as well as Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and Morocco.
