Our Patron
Neil Mitchell AO
Let’s rewind to 2002, when Neil played a huge role in backing TLC for Kids. He organised a live appeal on air, dedicating an entire show to raising funds for the charity. Families, board members, and even some celebs chipped in, taking donation calls from the 3AW boardroom. By the end of the three-and-a-half-hour show, they’d raised an impressive $150,000.
