🤔 It's likely she's in clinic etc. If you ring the main number for Sheffield Ataxia Centre they should be able to tell you 🙂 Don't try Newcastle for an Ataxia Nurse because we haven't got one. The London Ataxia Centre should have an Ataxia Nurse if all else fails🤔xB

Hi Guy, Diane is no longer an Ataxia Specialist Nurse - she's retired, but has returned to manage the specialist nurses for all conditions. Suzanne is there, but only works 3 days pw. A new full-time specialist nurse has been appointed who will be starting in the new few weeks. I imagine Suzanne is having to work her socks off until the new nurse starts. Clinics are in the mornings so you stand the best chance of Suzanne picking up if you call after about 2.15 Mon-Weds. Sue
