Access All: Disability News and Mental Health

The bike crash which made me forget English


Listen Later

Hannah Jenkins was cycling in her local park when she collided with another cyclist and fell-off her bike.

She sustained a serious head injury and was rushed to hospital in a critical condition.

But when she woke up, she was confused to discover no-one spoke the same language as her - and later discovered the crash had caused her brain to erase English.

Presented by Beth Rose. A full transcript is available below.
