Right, so i lost my ipad about 11 or 12 months ago and was really angry but found it a few hours ago at the bottom of some old draws. ive tried charging it up but it wont come on, it has probably been dead for ages now, any help or advice?

it has been on charge for aboput half an hour now and i have tried hard resets numerous times. i was really happy when i found it but am gutted now its not coming on. i dont want sound spoilt or anything because i did take care of it, i just really want it working again soon

Let it charge for a while longer. Thirty minutes on the charger after sitting dead in a drawer for a year is not long enough to see if it still has life left in it. Give it another 30 minutes or so and if you don't see the charging symbol the battery is most likely dead.
You can try plugging into your computer and see if iTunes will recognize it and if it does, try restoring the iOS software. If it remains unresponsive, you can have the battery replaced - and hope that's the only problem with the device.
