Walk makes life meaningful

Like every family affected by suicide, life will never be the same for the Drydens, who lost Cooper on 19 November this year. Now, step-mum Estelle (right) and step-sister Jacqui (left) are organising 'Out of the Shadows and into the Light' - a walk to allow people to show their support in preventing suicide and remember those lost. The walk will be held on 13 September from 10am at Emerald Lake Park. For more information visit www.outoftheshadows.org.au. 143014_05 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
