Leigh owner Derek Beaumont makes incredible gesture to Kevin Sinfield’s marathon challenge
Leigh owner Derek Beaumont has made special gesture to Kevin Sinfield’s marathon challenge in support of Rob Burrow with a £6,000 donation.
The Centurions owner helped take Sinfield’s marathon challenge fundraising total over the £777,777 mark with his kind gesture on Sunday.
Beaumont said: “What a man, what a charity and what an amazing support of unity from the game of rugby league.
“The £1,000 I donated doesn’t do it justice. This makes it cover that for each day! Boom, £777,777 done.”
Sinfield’s fundraising efforts for the Motor Neurone Disease Association have since passed £1million.
Sinfield is raising money in support of his former Rhinos colleague Rob Burrow, who is fighting the disease. His original target was £77,777.
