A Day in the Nine News studio to be auctioned off for community touched by tragedy

Neil Mitchell is auctioning off a “Day in the Studio” at Nine News to raise funds for a tight-knit community touched by tragedy.

Earlier this year, Neil brought you the story of Josh Davis (above) a close friend of Patrick Cronin, the teenager killed while intervening in a pub fight.

The 25-year-old electrician was camping with the Cronin family at Corowa when an accident occurred.

Josh was thrown into shallow water and has been left without any movement below his shoulders, with damage to his C4 and C5 vertebrae.

Neil has been helping the community to raise funds to pay for Josh’s medical bills.

This Saturday his family will hold a ‘Do it for Josh’ fundraiser, with many 3AW listeners donating auction items and offered services to help make it happen.

You can donate here.

Neil Mitchell will speak with Nine News’ Alicia Loxley on 3AW Mornings.
