The family of murdered Bangor woman Lisa Dorrian have launched a new campaign to raise reward money for information leading to the recovery of her remains.
The 25-year-old shop assistant was last seen alive on February 28, 2005 at a caravan park in Ballyhalbert and police believe she was murdered after a party in the area.
No one has ever been charged over her death and her body has never been found.

Over 17 years on from her sister's disappearance and more than 400 police searches later, Joanne Dorrian, is asking friends, family, public and supporters to please help them in raising a reward to find Lisa.
Earlier this week the Dorrian family launched their Go FundMe page with a £30,000 goal and say this money will only ever be paid if it leads to the recovery of Lisa’s body.
Alongside a picture of her " gorgeous" sister, Joanne wrote:
"Lisa was murdered in 2005 in Ballyhalbert, Northern Ireland and her body was hidden by the murderer. Lisa has now been missing for over 17 years and with over 400 police searches we have not been able to find her.
"We have campaigned for 17 years to find Lisa and to get justice but have not achieved either....yet. Today we are asking our friends, family, public and supporters to please help us in raising a reward to find Lisa.
"This reward will only ever be paid to someone if it leads to the recovery of Lisa’s body as that is our main priority."
Joanne added: "We believe there is someone other than the murderer who knows where Lisa lays now and can help us. If money is our only barrier then we ask you to please support this reward fund in any way you can. Every £1 will help us so much."
Joanne also believes Lisa's disappearance led to their mother Pat's death almost seven years ago.
"Our mum died in 2015 with a broken heart after losing Lisa, her first born daughter and our wish is to lay them to rest together. We need to find Lisa and this reward is the next step in our campaign to try to do that.
"We have been so, so, so supported by the public and local community and we thank each and every one of you for your years of love and support but we need one more thing from you. Please help support us in any way you can towards the reward to find Lisa’s wee body.
"Please find out more or reach out to me on Twitter or Facebook on @letsfindlisa.
"If you have any other questions please reach out to me and I will so happily answer them. We wish we didn’t have to ask for financial support but money may be the key to finding Lisa and if everyone can give a little that can make such a massive difference to our campaign.
"Thank you for reading and caring about our sister Lisa. We can confidentially be contacted via www.lisadorrian.co.uk. I will update here as things progress."
Lisa's murder recently featured in a four-part BBC documentary series 'Murder in the Badlands', on the brutal murders of four women.
The family were devastated after the PSNI confirmed that new searches conducted last summer in connection with her disappearance found no evidence.
The searches at the Clay Pits in Ballyhalbert were conducted by the PSNI’s Major Investigation Team throughout much of May 2021.
Specialist divers were involved in the extensive search in the area of small lakes, close to the caravan park where Ms Dorrian was last seen alive.
It involved the same team who found the remains of murder victim Pat McCormick (55) in a lake in Ballygowan two years earlier.
There have been searches of the area previously, including at a disused airfield in 2019.
