Charlie Bird has opened up about his MND, confessing that it is 'changing fast' in a new post on social media.

He has also raised millions for several charities around Ireland, including Irish MND Association, Pieta House, Samaritans and Irish Hospice.“My MND is changing fast.I am now using a feeding tube and will soon have to use a mobility travelator to get out and about,” he wrote on Twitter.

“Also I am being honoured by the Murrisk Community. They are giving a permanent home to a stone to mark Climb with Charlie. Now Brent Pope’s project is my goal.” In 2022, Charlie famously climbed Croagh Patrick with a group of people, raising a whopping €3.6m for the national suicide prevention charity Pieta House and the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association.
