Turning Adversity into Action – Matt Gallagher’s Fight Against MND


In this powerful episode of the Inspiring Leadership Podcast, we sit down with Matt Gallagher, former Coventry rugby player and founder of the Matt Gallagher Foundation, created following his diagnosis with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in October 2023.

Rather than stepping back, Matt has taken bold steps forward—raising over £600,000 through his foundation to support research, increase awareness, and provide hands-on support to the MND community. From charity runs and rugby matches to heartfelt public speaking and community engagement, Matt’s story is one of courage, resilience, and purpose.


Tune in to hear how Matt is transforming personal adversity into a powerful movement of hope and solidarity. 🏉
