BUT not a single word about Ben Needham! Wouldn't that be the tragedy they should be jumping all over?
Now that they are, or so it's said, with no money in fund and with very little or no prospect of getting any more, for them it's indifferent, in terms of sucking up money, if Maddie or isn't alive, so it's not a question of them not wanting to be associated with a missing child who turned out to be, unfortunately, deceased.
And the fact that Ben is dead, so say South Yorkshire police, doesn't in any way determine what would be, for the McCanns, Maddie's fate.
Their silence about Ben is very important, in our opinio

I find it interesting that she is associating with someone whose daughter is dead.

Kate McCann: 'We go to bed each night hoping tomorrow will lead us to Maddie'

Brave mum reveals her continued torment as she delivers impassioned speech to launch a new charity appeal to 'Find Every Child'
Kate McCann has told how she goes to bed each night hoping the next day will reveal new information about what happened to her missing daughter Madeleine .
The brave mum revealed her continued torment during an impassioned speech to launch a new charity appeal to “Find Every Child”.
Former GP Kate has joined forces with the mum of murdered Alice Gross, the 14-year-old who was brutally murdered in September 2014 in a sexually motivated attack by Latvian builder Arnis Zalkalns.
Little Madeleine disappeared on the evening of May 3 2007 from her bed in a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, a resort in the Algarve region of Portugal.
Madeleine - who would now be 13 years old - has never been found despite dozens of reported sightings around the world and one of the most high profile missing persons cases in history.
Former GP Kate, said: “We go to bed every night with the agonising feeling that just maybe tomorrow we will find something to lead us back to Madeleine. To let us know what happened. To give us hope.”
Kate and Ros Hodgkiss, mum of teenager Alice who was missing for nearly five weeks before being found dead, helped highlight the plight of 140,000 youngsters who go missing in Britain each year.
Together the two mums, united in grief over the loss of their daughters, launched an appeal which aims to raise funds to enable the charity to reach out to missing kids.
Kate, an ambassador for Missing People, urged the public to give their support.
She said: “Giving hope is what Missing People do day in and day out. Please help this wonderful charity in their ambitious goal to Find Every Child.”
In a speech during Thursday night’s fund-raising dinner and auction in central London, said: “When my little girl first disappeared, on that horrendous night that changed our lives forever, I could never have imagined that nearly 10 years later we would still be in the same position.
“That I would be stood here in front of you tonight talking about the issue and how important it is that we look for each and every missing child.”
The two mums shared the spotlight at the event at the luxury Corinthia Hotel where guests included Sir Trevor McDonald , Fiona Phillips and actress Monica Dolan.
Brave Ros relived in public the nightmare of her daughter’s disappearance and subsequent murder and told how her family are indebted to the charity’s help.
Evil killer Zalkalns, 41, who had served a prison sentence in his native Latvia for murdering his wife, is the prime suspect in Alice’s murder.
He had been able to live freely in Britain despite a conviction for murdering his wife in Latvia.
Sadly he was never brought to justice after taking his own life days after Alice’s body was found.
Ms Hodgkiss said: “We had access to their 24 hour helpline to help us deal with the ongoing crisis of her disappearance.
“Missing People also provided specialized trauma counselling to us, which helped us manage the immediate aftermath of Alice’s disappearance prior to the news of her death.
“It’s still hard to express the enormity of our loss which is infinite. The one thing we can be certain of is that our lives can never be the same again.
“But Missing People helped me, and I know that they will help other parents faced with the disorienting mayhem of a child going missing.
“Find every child is one way of doing that.”
Jo Youle, charity CEO, said: “If every vulnerable child who went missing last year in the UK were together they would fill Wembley Stadium – twice.
“The number of children we are desperately searching for increased by 60 per cent this year. We have the means to help far more children. However our team is absolutely stretched to capacity. If we don’t urgently raise more funds, this year alone hundreds of vulnerable children will not be found.”
She said the fundraising event was made possible thanks to the support of players of the People’s Postcode Lottery, Clear Channel and Royal Mail.
Kate and heart doctor husband Gerry, both 48, from Rothley, Leics, believe their Madeleine could still be alive.
Her family have been buoyed up by Scotland Yard ’s pledge to continue searching for Maddie for at least another five months.
Schoolgirl Alice never returned to her home in Hanwell, West London, after going for a walk in August 2014.
Heartbroken Ross described the near five weeks Alice was missing as “an unbearable period of shock and suspended grief.”
In a reference to Maddie’s mum and others she added: “But there are families and friends who have had people missing for months, years, decades.”
Ms Hodgkiss paid tribute to her daughter as “a vibrant girl, full of life and energy, quirky and funny, smart and pretty”.
She revealed how she is rebuilding her life by singing in the Missing People choir in tribute to her musically gifted daughter. music was her daughter’s passion.

And in that short paragraph I know more about Alice than I know about Madeleine McCann.

Kate McCann: We go to bed each night....
When I first started reading it, I thought it was going to be another 'couldn't make love' story.

I notice KM uses the term disappeared - they must have been told she wasn't abducted!

Re: Charridee begins at home!!
So basically KM has latched onto Alice Gross' mother with help from Missing People to beg for more money.
All about filling the coffers. There's a lot of salaries to pay for within the Missing People organisation.
It amazes me and disgusts me at the same time that KM is an ambassador.

Miss Hodgkiss would be a wonderful Ambassador for Missing People. Her description of her daughter quoted by chirpy and the paragraph above saying how Missing People helped her when Alice went missing are heartfelt and eloquent.
Unfortunately for the charity, they are forever stained by their association with Kate McCann. I wonder how much making her ambassador cost them in terms of their reputation and donations received.

Re: Charridee begins at home!!
I wonder what CEO Jo Youles real thoughts are on the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
I bet she doesn't give a stuff either way as long as Madeleine remains 'missing'.
I also wonder what sort of salary CEO Jo is on? Not far off 6 figures I bet.
