Rugby League legend Rob Burrow CBE continues to inspire awareness for the motor neurone disease (MND) community as we approach the first anniversary of his passing on June 2.

Rob Burrow would be "incredibly proud" of the motor neurone disease (MND) treatment centre that bears his name, his widow Lindsey said on the first anniversary of his death.

Prince William has recorded a touching message for Rob Burrow's widow Lindsey to use as the forward in her new memoir after the rugby league legend's tragic death.
