LINDSEY BURROW

Take Care: A Memoir of Love, Family & Never Giving Up is the life-affirming memoir of Lindsey Burrow, the working mother of three young children who has inspired the nation through her example of love and selfless commitment to her husband, Rob Burrow, the rugby league legend she cared for full time since he was diagnosed with Motor neurone disease in 2019.

Co-written by two-time William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award winner Donald McRae, Take Care explores the deepest reserves of resilience, personal sacrifice and hope that Lindsey exhibited on a daily basis since her family’s life was upended by the terminal MND diagnosis. Juggling her day job for the NHS as a physiotherapist, with round-the-clock care for Rob, who cannot move or talk, and can only eat with Lindsey’s assistance, she has simultaneously raised her brilliant young family and helped to raise awareness for MND. The efforts of Rob, Lindsey and Kevin Sinfield have raised over £15 million for charity.

Take Care explores her life and shares her honest experiences of finding strength in the good and the bad times, in order to offer readers and families hope to overcome challenges in their own lives. The book sheds a light on the many families across the UK who care for their loved ones with little support. Finally, the book is a rousing call to action, for us all as a society to take better care of one another.
