Missing Blackpool teenager Paige to be featured in new publicity campaigns

Missing Blackpool teenager Paige Chivers is to be featured on posters in Tesco stores as well as on the EMCOR UK facilities management company's fleet of vans. Her image will also be shown on TV screens in hospitals, GP surgeries and NHS walk-in centres as part of the Amscreen Health campaign. These campaigns are run in conjunction with the NPIA Missing Persons Bureau and charity PACT (Parents and Abducted Children Together).

Paige, a former Montgomery High School pupil, disappeared from her home address on 23rd August 2007, aged 15 years, following an argument. She was last seen at a bus stop in Ashfield Road, Blackpool. She left home with a suitcase containing her belongings.

Paige is described as white, 5'5 tall with brown hair dyed blonde. She has a tattoo of a Playboy bunny with the words 'Playgirl' underneath on the back of her neck.

Det Sgt Angela Grey from Lancashire Police Major Investigation Team, said: "We are delighted Tesco has been able to help us in the search for Paige."

"They have hundreds of stores across the UK with millions of customers every week so the potential for new information is huge."

"I would also like to thank the NPIA for their support in what is a difficult and long running investigation."

Joe Apps, Manager of the NPIA Missing Persons Bureau, added: "We've been pleased to work with Tesco, EMCOR, PACT (Parents and Abducted Children Together) and other partners to feature this case on the Missing Kids website."

"The site is key to publicising various missing children. NPIA has provided support for the investigation through the Bureau and specialist services."

A total reward of £12,000 has been offered by local businesses and the Association of British Invesigators.
