About this listen

In a deeply personal and touching conversation, Simon McDermott talks to Caroline about his two very different worlds running in parallel: the continuous 24-hour care needed to look after his father Ted as he lives with dementia and the bright lights of media attention giving a spotlight to his incredible 2016 multi award-winning dementia fundraising story. Simon talks candidly about the push/pull between keeping his father out of the public eye versus the realisation that his car sharing sing-a-long videos with his dad brought so much pleasure to the world and in turn £150,000 in donations. A record deal and book would follow.
