A year after a mother and her young son died at Aberdeen beach - the North East community is still pulling out all the stops the help the family.
Julie Walker, 37, and her 6-year-old son Lucas died in hospital after an afternoon trip to Aberdeen beach ended in the family getting into difficulty.
Samuel Walker – who was 13 at the time - jumped into the water to try and rescue his mum and brother.
He was taken to hospital with injuries which he later recovered from.
A 28-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman also received medical treatment after trying to help get them out of the water.
Samuel and older brother Jordan Walker are now living with their Grandmother Lynne Dawson after moving out of their family home in Aberdeen. We’ve been catching up with Jordan, as we mark one year since that tragic day.
