We’re sorry to hear that former @EnglandRugby and @LeicesterTigers rugby player, Lewis Moody, has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
He’s one of six people who will receive this news today – the @mndassoc is here to support Lewis, his family and all affected by #MND.
Wondering what this is all about?
This is a striking life-size ice figure of Seckin, who has a genetic form of motor neurone disease (#MND) caused by the SOD1 gene.

We’re at Westminster for a Day of Action with @mndassoc’s #PrescribeLife campaign.
Tofersen offers hope to people with SOD1 #MND but NHS delays mean at least 20 can’t access it. Every day counts.
We need urgent action. No one should be left behind.

Another remarkable feat for a remarkable human being. Wishing Kevin Sinfield the best of luck with his latest #7in7 challenge for @mndassoc, we know you'll do Rob's memory proud.
Tofersen is an effective new treatment for those with the SOD1 genetic variant of motor neurone disease.
It works. It can slow progression of their #MND.
Join the community and call for NICE to make an exception to its normal criteria. Sign our petition below.

We’re deeply saddened to learn of the death of our patron Rob Burrow CBE.
Since his MND diagnosis in 2019, Rob has played a vital role in raising awareness and money to support our work. We will be forever grateful.
Our thoughts are with Rob’s family, friends and fans.
A pleasure to award Rob Burrow and Kevin Sinfield with their CBEs at Headingley today. Thank you both for your incredible efforts in raising awareness and funds for Motor Neurone Disease. Both true heroes of the #MND community and the Rugby Football League.
