Queenslanders are being encouraged to wear red today for 2018s ‘Day for Daniel’, a National Day of Action to raise awareness for child safety and protection.

This morning a 4km walk is taking place from Woombye’s Suncoast Christian College to a nearby park, following the short distance young Daniel Morcombe walked 14 years ago when he was abducted.

If you want to donate to the Daniel Morcombe foundation, you can do so at www.danielmorcombe.com.au and if you need help please call lifeline on 13 11 14.
