Searchers were back in the woods in Lansdowne Station, N.S., Sunday as the search for Lilly and Jack Sullivan continues almost one year after the siblings were first reported missing.

About 50 people scoured the woods looking for any sign of six-year-old Lilly and four-year-old Jack. A cadaver dog was also part of the search.

The Sullivan children were reported missing from their Gairloch Road home on the morning of May 2, 2025. Police and search and rescue teams conducted multiple air, ground and water searches but the children were never found.

This weekend the Ontario-based group "Please Bring Me Home” conducted the search. The group first joined the effort to find the children in November 2025.

The Province of Nova Scotia is offering a reward of up to $150,000 for information about the disappearance of Lilly and Jack Sullivan.
