Story

For carers of those with MND it is important to know that their loved ones are in the best possible place. Something every MND sufferer and their families deserve. Although the news wont be any better, it will be easier to come to terms with in a purposely built care centre that meets the needs of every MND patient. - Rob Burrow MBE

Your fundraising will help us continue to support the MND service in the years to come.

By supporting our appeal, you can help us to make Rob’s dream a reality, where The Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease will see all MND services housed under one roof for the first time.

Help us transform the hospital experience for people with MND, their loved ones, and our NHS heroes caring for them.

Although we have now reached our £6.8m target to build the centre. We plan to continue to fundraise to ensure the centre can adapt to the needs of patients and their families in the future and also expand the care on offer. We’re now focused on raising funds for things like additional equipment, a therapeutic garden, family support services, holistic therapies and for the first time in Leeds, new research programmes.
