More than two decades after the abduction and murder of 13-year-old Daniel Morcombe, Queensland has introduced landmark legislation aimed at strengthening child protection. Known as Daniel’s Law, the new bill establishes a public child sex offender registry, allowing families and communities to access critical safety information.
Wobbly Jelly is a FREE digital children’s book released by The Daniel Morcombe Foundation. This book encourages important conversations with children about body clues and how to Recognise, React, and Report.
