Amazing Charlotte Hawkins to present MND Association’s BBC Lifeline Appeal
Radio and television presenter Charlotte Hawkins will front the Motor Neurone Disease Association’s BBC Lifeline Appeal, which will be televised next month.
A dedicated patron for the Association, Charlotte’s connection to MND began when her dad Frank was diagnosed with the devastating disease in 2011. He died just four years later.
The fundraising appeal, which will feature on BBC1 and BBC2, provides a unique opportunity to raise awareness of MND, and highlight some of the vital support the Association provides across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Viewers of the programme will hear from James, Eoin and Maggie, who will share their experiences of being affected by MND and how the Association has been able to support them.
I’m incredibly proud to present the MND Association’s BBC Lifeline Appeal. I know first-hand from my family experience just how cruel MND is and why it is so important to help continue the MND Association’s work, funding vital research and supporting families affected by this terminal disease.
