Charlie Bird has said that his health is in a "much worse situation" as he continues to raise awareness of Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

The former RTÉ broadcaster was diagnosed towards the end of 2021, using his platform and profile since then to raise awareness and millions in fundraising for charity.
