LMFM Late Lunch Listen Back

Late Lunch Thursday August 22nd 2024

Aimee Campbell lives with a severe form of Functional Neurological Disorder, which has seen her become totally dependent on assistance to get through each day and she really wants the "old Aimee back", something only specialised treatment in London can make happen. Barbara Scully hopes the late Nell McCafferty understood how much she did to improve the lives of Irish women. Blake Boland and Sean Keenan told us how they swam the English Channel as part of a four-man team. While visually impaired David Ryan explained how he runs the gauntlet of dog faeces and illegal pavement parking.
