Event: Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon 2023, on 14 May 2023
In memory of Sue Chadbourne
The Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon will take place on Sunday 14 May 2023 and has been inspired by former Leeds Rhinos captain, Kevin Sinfield OBE, and his fundraising challenges in recent years in support of his friend and team mate Rob Burrow.

Story

In August 2021 my lovely friend and colleague, Sue Chadbourne was diagnosed with MND. In December 2021 she had to retire on ill health. Sadly, on 6th January 2023 Sue died peacefully in Rotherham hospice surrounded by her family and close friends. I heard about the new Rob Burrow’s marathon and promised Sue I would train for this in order to help raise awareness and much needed funds to support people living with MND. Thank you for reading my page and your support  Amanda  x

From MND Association - We need your support £120 could provide an overbed table, making it easier for someone with MND to eat, drink and read safely and comfortably in bed. £230 could fund the coordination of care for someone with MND at a Care Centre for a year. £500 could provide a tablet device with specialist communication software, allowing someone to communicate with loved ones. £750 could fund an MND expert researcher for a week. 

Every penny raised from The Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon will bring us closer to achieving our ultimate mission; a world free from MND.
