Big Freeze 12. We Play On, for Neale 

Today’s the day. The Big Freeze returns to the MCG for round 12.  

The slide is in place, the ice is on standby and the costumes are ready as Australia unites in the fight against the Beast that is motor neurone disease (MND). 

This day exists because of three people who made a choice. A choice to make a difference. A choice to not sit quietly. A choice to fight. And at the centre of that story is Neale Daniher.  

Through his leadership, FightMND has been able to invest in vital research and support programs for people affected by MND. It has transformed Australia’s MND research landscape and brought it to the world stage. But his legacy extends far beyond funding. It lives in the movement he built. And the people who continue it. 

The fight against MND does not end with Neale. His signature rally cry, Play On, is louder now more than ever. 

Let’s keep his legacy alive. Together we continue the fight, moving towards a future without MND. We Play On, for Neale.

Every King’s Birthday the MCG turns into a sea of blue Beanies for the Big Freeze. Thousands of Australians coming together, united in the fight against the Beast that is MND. 

But this fight isn’t limited to those inside the stadium. Whether you’re in the stands or watching from home, interstate or overseas, you can still be part of this fight. 

The Digital Beanie is a new way to donate in the fight against MND. 

This year, FightMND is aiming to sell over 100,000 Digital Beanies, enough to put a Digital Beanie on every seat of the MCG.  

Every Digital Beanie sold helps FightMND fund vital research and care programs, bringing us one step closer to defeating the Beast for good. All Digital Beanie purchases are tax deductible.
