It is with huge sadness and a profound sense of loss that we must announce that Vicky Neale, teacher, advocate, inspiration and much loved colleague, died on May 3 after a long illness.

Vicky is well known to many people in the mathematical community and beyond, from fellow academics to the many schools that she visited and, most of all, through her many lectures, talks and films. Her digital footprint is a fitting and wonderful legacy.

We pass our condolences to her family, her friends and to all of you who have lost a champion for our wonderful subject.

Last year Vicky made a series of podcasts on the subject of Maths + Cancer with fellow mathematicians and scientists such as David Spiegelhalter and Hannah Fry. You can listen to them all here

And you can share your memories of Vicky
