The issue of missing people affects everyone in Irish Society. It can strike any family at any time, rich, poor, men, women, children, people of all races and creed, all ages, farmers, townspeople, no-one is immune from it. Its only when someone belonging to you actually goes missing that makes you aware of how much a properly funded missing Persons Help line is needed. By then unfortunately it is too late

We the undersigned demand a properly funded all-Ireland Missing Persons Helpline as a matter of urgency in order to adequately address the issues for those missing and those left behind.
