Rob Burrow documentary to air on BBC showing how he lives with motor neurone disease

Leeds Rhinos legend Rob Burrow will feature in a BBC documentary with his family, showing how he lives with motor neurone disease.

Rob was diagnosed with the illness in 2019 and told he may only have a year to live, two at the most. 'Rob Burrow: Living With MND' airs this Autumn.

The half hour BBC Breakfast documentary takes an intimate look at his life now, as 40-year-old Rob has passed his two year life expectancy and has survived a global pandemic. It follows the love and support of Rob’s family, friends and the wider Rugby League community.
