Child Safety - Bring Cleo Home

Any missing child is a national emergency.

Four-year-old Cleo Smith has been missing since the early morning of Saturday 16 October. Her parents, Ellie Smith and Jake Gliddon, woke to a tent without their child. Police do not know where she is.

She was last seen in a pink and blue Bonds butterfly onesie, and she had vanished from the Carnarvon blowholes campground. Carnarvon is some 900 kilometres north of Perth, but Cleo now could be anywhere.

Police are searching for any information that might bring her home, and we need community help.

Wherever you are in Australia, if you know anything, please come forward.

The WA government has announced a $1 million reward for information that will bring her home.

You can call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or contact your local police. If you have dashcam footage, social media footage or telephone footage that may assist, please come forward and give it to police.

This Friday is the Day for Daniel. It's in memory of Daniel Morcombe. It's a reminder that we have such a long way to go on child safety, just as the search for Cleo Smith is a reminder. Like many in this place, I've met Bruce and Denise Morcombe. I commend their work in child safety.

Let's honour that work by finding Cleo Smith.
