DOZENS
of people had a collective photograph taken as part of a fund-raising
effort to help in the search for missing Madeleine McCann.
Julie
Hancock arranged for 60 people to strike a pose, which, when viewed from
above, spelt out Madeleine's name.
In a
second photograph, they recreated the girl's distinctive right eye.
Three-year-old Madeleine, from Leicestershire, went missing while on
holiday in Portugal in May 2007.
Julie,
aged 39, from Bagnall, believes she saw the child when she was on
holiday in Spain, two weeks after she disappeared and ever since has
been fund-raising for the search fund.
Julie,
mum to Matthew, aged 21, 17-year-old Lyrissa and Aiden, aged six, said:
"The photograph was brilliant. We had people lying on the floor to cover
the ground. We're really chuffed with the picture."
The
picture, and similar aerial shots, will be compiled into a calendar for
2012 and sold. Other photos have been taken at St Mary's Catholic
Primary School, in Norton, and the working men's club in Baddeley Green.
Julie
said: "We need to raise ?650 to cover costs, but I'm confident we can do
it." |
