- just trying to add these now Paula Marie
I am also wondering if the van mentioned in the latest police update is a transit connect it could have a drivers side sliding cargo door which is quite unusual as normally it is passenger side ( kirb-side ) - 2012-10-02 12:54 Paula Marie

Dyfed Powys Police have said: "At the time of her disappearance, April was wearing a purple knee-length coat with grey fur around the hood, her school white polo top and black trousers.
Site shows photos of April in school uniform and another photo of coat April may have been wearing. Wondered if admin could add these photos
