Charlie Bird says there's 'no possibility' he could climb Croagh Patrick again.
The former broadcaster took to Twitter in the form of a video message, a year on from the creation of his Climb with Charlie appeal, which saw hundreds of people nationwide brave the heights of Croagh Patrick for charity. Charlie has gained huge public support after disclosing his diagnosis with Motor Neurone Disease in 2021. He wished all his supporters a happy and healthy New Year, but also took the opportunity to reflect on his own wellbeing.
He said in the video: “I am no longer certain how much longer I will have mobility. There is no possibility that I could climb Croagh Patrick again, although I want to continue helping people and charities.”
