It’s wonderful to see Hidden Homicide victims finally getting the recognition they deserve. It’s just sad that it’s taken this long and in some cases the culprits aren’t brought to justice. Thanks Yolonde for supporting fierce family members like Sue who never give up fighting for the truth. RIP Gwen Grover

Well done for exposing DV cowards. Such a massive issue in Australia but so many victims fly under the radar as listeners of this podcast and can attest

You are invited to the unveiling of Gwen's Bench at the park on Lake St Cairns, near where the body of Gwen Grover was discovered more than 40 years ago.

A small ceremony will be held as a reminder to families of victims and survivors of Domestic Violence to never give up the fight for justice and to remember there is a strong support network out there to support them.

The bench will be erected in front of the tree Cairns Regional Council planted for her last year.

Gwen's sister Sue Cole says she is deeply grateful to those who have organised this, particularly Luke Jackson, Cairns Mayor Amy Eden, Deirdre Ford of the Red Rose Foundation, and MP Yolonde Ensch.

"These red benches stand as a poignant reminder of a silent epidemic plaguing our nation — domestic violence," Sue said.

"Research indicates that domestic violence causes more deaths than any other health epidemic.

"I hope that anyone passing through Lake Street will take a moment to pause, sit on this bench, and reflect on the courage of women such as Gwen, who bravely fought to protect their children

"It is imperative that we end 'victim shaming and victim blaming' and that lawmakers, policymakers, and the judiciary take a firm stance.

"In the words of Martin Luther King Jr., 'To ignore evil is to become an accomplice to it."

Today is Gwen Grover's birthday - she would have turned 73.

This is a photo of the tree planted for her by Cairns Regional Council after our podcast was published.

Later this year, a red bench will go in and one day, Gwen's Tree will shelter and protect the people on that bench, the same way she tried to shelter and protect her boys.

Like so many other women across Australia, Gwen's death was a Hidden Homicide.

The creators of her podcast are dedicated to exposing stories such as Gwen's whose deaths were mishandled by authorities.

Gwen's sister, Sue Cole, has this message:

"To all our friends, family and loyal supporters, your unwavering support has given me the strength and courage to keep going even when things get tough. I want you all to know how much it means to me and I will continue with our fight to get justice for Gwen."

We are still awaiting a date for the District Court where Gwen's case will be resumed.
