YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Your 2025 Australian of the Year is Neale Daniher AO!

Neale is a co-founder of FightMND, a charity that has raised and invested over $115 million into medical research to find a cure for motor neurone disease (MND).

Since his diagnosis in 2013, the former AFL player has been battling the debilitating effects of the disease in the public eye, tirelessly campaigning and raising awareness of MND. The annual Big Freeze event at the MCG embodies Neale's ethos of turning adversity into an opportunity for celebration and hope.
