“We often remark that our greatest gift to Australia is the education of children about their personal safety. The need for every child to be safe is what compelled us 17 years ago to establish the Foundation and still drives us and our team forwards, each and every day.” Bruce and Denise Morcombe.

In 2022, Carolyn made the acquaintance of Denise as they were both living in the same area and would often share a quick chat while out on walks. From these quick snippets, further conversations developed and Carolyn came to know Denise and Bruce and the work they do through the Daniel Morcombe Foundation.
