NSW LEGENDS vs Queensland Legends Charity Game 2024

Integrate Disability Solutions is an official sponsor of the NSW and Queensland NRL Legends Charity game to be held at Kayo Stadium in Moreton Bay at 3 pm on Saturday, September 28, 2024.

Witnessing NRL legends in their element is truly an unforgettable experience and this charity game offers just that. Watch as these former NRL legends lace up their boots one more time to help raise much needed awareness for Motor Neurone Disease and Huntington’s Disease- two debilitating conditions affecting far too many individuals and families.

What is Huntington’s Disease?

Huntington’s disease (HD) is an inherited degenerative neurological condition affecting the brain and central nervous system that results in the progressive loss of mental and physical capacities.

Huntington’s disease progressively strips away the affected individual’s ability to walk, talk, eat, think and reason; death ensues from complications.

What is MND?

Motor neurone disease (MND) is a term used to describe a group of diseases that affect nerve cells called ‘motor neurons’.

Motor neurons carry messages from the brain to the muscles via the spinal cord. These messages allow us to make movements like walking, swallowing, talking and breathing.

In motor neurone disease, the nerves become damaged and start to die. When this happens, muscles start to weaken and waste away. Currently, there is no cure for MND and it is life-limiting. The speed at which MND progresses varies for each person. Survival time also varies, but the average life expectancy is 2 to 3 years from diagnosis.
