Petri Lampinen

I was diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia in 2015, but I refuse to let the difficulties associated with my dementia defeat me. In spite of them, I continue to live an active life, working in my garden, cycling and playing ping-pong and badminton. Being open about my condition and remaining as calm as possible in any situation helps me navigate life with dementia, with the support of others when needed.

Petri was nominated by the Alzheimer Society of Finland; (Muistiliitto) in 2017 and was nominated again for the 2018-2020 and 2020-2022 terms.
