On September 10, 2023, 17-year-old Fletcher Crowley’s life changed in an instant when an ordinary day out with his mates went bad. In that moment, his whole family was impacted in ways they've only recently started to understand.

In this conversation, Fletcher and his parents, Nicky and Pat joined Mia Freedman six months after his accident to talk about that day and the unexpected aftermath.

Fletcher's foundation Get Silly is here, if you want to buy a jumper or shirt and support spinal cord research and rehab.
