Niamh Maye was just 18 when she was last seen near Jingellic in southern New South Wales on 30 March 2002.

It is hoped a $250,000 reward will prompt someone to reveal what happened to a beloved teenage girl who disappeared 21 years ago, leaving “a gaping hole” in her family. She was the youngest of seven children who grew up in Armidale, northern NSW.
