Angela Brigenshaw

Angela Brigenshaw was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa in 1977. This condition can result in total blindness but Angela has been lucky in that she still has some sight. In 2007 she met her guide dog, Timber, and her life changed forever. Overcoming her physical disabilities, which also include profound deafness and polymyalgia, Angela has written a number of books of various genres. The current work is aimed at teaching children all about guide dogs, the training they undergo and the valuable work they do. She now lives in rural West Wales with her husband.
