Having seen Rob Burrows battle with MND and become the face of Rugby League players surviving with this terrible debilitating disease, and seeing Kevin Sinfield run 101 miles in 24 hours, it has inspired us to get off our bums in January and do some fundraising. Doddie aid is rugby union related, but in this instance, rugby is rugby. United for the cause! It’s £20 to sign up, so if you want to join in rather than donate, then go to the Doddie Aid app!

Doddie's story has transcended the rugby world. To fearlessly face down his diagnosis and raise £6 million in 4 years for MND research and a further £1.25 million to support MND patients has been mind blowing. And to have done it with a smile never far from his lips, and humour punctuating every call to action, Doddie is an inspiration. Doddie Aid is a way for us all to do our little bit to help him and the Foundation in the quest to find better treatments for MND.
