The mother of missing Dublin school boy, Philip Cairns, has died.

Alice Cairns had long campaigned for answers after her 13 year-old son disappeared while walking back to school from his home in Ballyroan in October 1986.

The Missing Persons Helpline says she was a stalwart of the organisation and an inspiration to all those in the "missing" community.
