For our latest Dementia together podcast we spoke to retired teacher Nellie Suffolk, aged 82, in Bristol.
Nellie was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease around six years ago. This diagnosis came as a shock because Nellie had put her symptoms down to getting older.
Nellie was born in Zambia when it was still under British rule and was one of the few girls to complete primary education at the time. She spent her life in education, teaching and studying across the UK and in several African nations.
Nellie tells us how she remains as independent and active as she can following her diagnosis.
