“The Big Freeze is back for another year and it’s going to be bigger and better than ever,” Daniher said.

“With the generous support of the Australian public, we are fighting back against MND and starting to throw some punches.

“It’s still early in the fight but ‘The Beast’ is getting nervous, it knows the FightMND Army is coming at it.”

Big Freeze 5 will be held on June 10.
