The five-year-old from the Mid Wales town was abducted while playing outside her home and murdered last October.

Now the haulage giant has agreed to give April's name to the latest vehicle in its nationwide fleet to help with fundraising and raising awareness of the campaign for April's Law, to change legislation over pornography on the internet.

The idea came from Kevin and Jenny Clarke, from Ford, near Shrewsbury who have become friends with April's parents.
