AVON and Somerset Police have launched a campaign on the 30th anniversary of Melanie Hall’s disappearance after a night out in Bath.

Mayor of the West of England, Helen Godwin, said: “Today I want to join the police in calling for everyone who was living, working or studying in the West at the time to rack their brains about the weekend of June, 8 to 9, 1996.

“The pain her loved ones have been in for the past 30 years will have been unbearable, and the thoughts of people around our region will be with them again on this anniversary.

“Any detail that people can remember from that weekend, however small it may seem, could help piece together Melanie’s final hours and bring those responsible to justice.”
