The World Cup winner died with dementia.
Sir Bobby Charlton’s death highlights the urgent need to find a cure for dementia, Alzheimer’s Research UK has said.
Almost a million people in the UK are living with dementia and it is the leading cause of death, the Alzheimer’s Research UK charity said. “It’s absolutely devastating that Sir Bobby’s final years were blighted by dementia, but unfortunately this is the case for almost one million people in the UK today.
In March it was announced that Ms Evans would co-chair the Dame Barbara Windsor Dementia Mission, launched in August 2022 to develop innovative research tools and increase the number and speed of clinical trials in dementia and neurodegeneration.
