Reward offered in renewed appeal to solve double murder of father and son

Our charity is offering a reward of up to £20,000 to support a re-investigation into the murder of father and son Daniel and Liam Poole.

The reward is for information given exclusively to our charity that leads to the arrest and conviction of any person responsible for their murder in Spain five years ago.
 
 A decision to treat their disappearance as a murder investigation was made in 2022.

The pair, Daniel (known as Danny) aged 46 and Liam aged 22 from Burgess Hill, West Sussex travelled to Malaga in Spain on Sunday, 31 March 2019. 

They hired a grey Peugeot 308 with the registration number 0254 KTM when they arrived in the country. This car was never returned, and their luggage was left in their hotel, together with their passports. The vehicle was later found abandoned by Spanish Police.
