I will be taking part in the Rob Burrow Strictly ball on March 19th. 

Not many people can persuade me to dance - but Rob is definitely one of them. From the moment we met - he made me feel like part of the family. All of the team on BBC Breakfast are proud of the film we made together "My Year with MND". When other people might have wanted to hide from the world, Rob, Lindsey and the children opened their door to us and shared their story. 

We are raising money for a brand new centre for people living with motor neurone disease. It's a horrible diagnosis. There is no treatment, there is no cure. 

Rob and his family want to help other people who face this awful disease by building somewhere safe and welcoming for them to visit. There will be medical care, help and advice all under one roof. The Burrows know what its like to go home after diagnosis with just a leaflet to read and very little hope. 

They're trying to change that, and I'm hoping to help them, along with all the other people who will be taking part on the night. 

My TV partner Dan Walker has been giving me dancing advice, but i fear I've got no chance. Hopefully we can make people smile. If Macy and Maya Burrow think I've done a good job that will be enough for me!
