Crimestoppers.Our Chair offers £50,000 reward in hunt for killer of 9-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel

REward

Crimestoppers make an urgent direct appeal to those with information to contact our charity 100% anonymously
As the desperate search for the killer of schoolgirl Olivia Pratt-Korbel continues, the Founder and Chair of our charity, Lord Ashcroft, is supporting the investigation by personally offering £50,000 for information that leads to those responsible being jailed. 

Crimestoppers takes vital information about crime completely anonymously, meaning personal details of people contacting them are never asked for or stored. Over 1,500 people contact our charity each day as it provides a safe, alternative way to pass on what they know without any comeback.

GIVE INFORMATION ANONYMOUSLY

The new appeal is aimed at those in the community who have so far been too scared to come forward. It follows the death of Olivia Pratt-Korbel in her home in Dovecot, Liverpool on 22 August. Olivia was shot dead in the chest by a gunman in a tragedy that also saw her 46-year-old mother Cheryl shot in the wrist as she desperately tried to shield her daughter from harm. 

Our charity - which is independent of the police - is supporting the investigation by offering a reward of up to £50,000 for anonymous information we exclusively receive - via our website or by phone on 0800 555 111 – that leads to the conviction of the person responsible for Olivia Pratt-Korbel’s murder

“Our charity’s UK Contact Centre takes calls and receives information online every day from people who live in close-knit communities who are genuinely fearful about speaking directly to the police. That’s why we’re here to help them do the right thing and say what they know, safe in the knowledge that with Crimestoppers, once you’ve said your piece, there will be no consequences.

“Olivia’s murder has shocked us all, which is why I have made this personal offer of up to £50,000 available via Crimestoppers to help get justice for Olivia’s family and friends. What happened is truly unacceptable and I say to anyone who has information that can help catch the killer to come forward completely anonymously.”Lord Ashcroft, Founder and Chair of Crimestoppers.

We know it can be difficult to speak up about someone who is involved in serious crime, especially if they are close to you. Crimestoppers has kept our promise to protect your identity since we started back in the late 1980s. Around half a million people contact our charity every year to pass on what they know.

Call our UK Contact Centre, which is open 24/7, on freephone 0800 555 111 or use our simple and secure anonymous online form. Nobody will know you contacted us, and you will be doing the right thing for Olivia, her family, friends and the wider community across Liverpool who are still trying to come to terms with this tragedy.”Mick Duthie, Crimestoppers Director of Operations.
