The Memory Team
Nearly 50 million people in the world have dementia and this is set to triple in the next 35 years. With a new case every 3.2 seconds, Jessica and Felicity are young filmmakers attempting to capture the memories of people living with dementia before they are lost forever. Together, they are The Memory Team - working for charity My Life Films to produce films for people living with dementia. In this poignant and emotional series, each episode will bring a new case and a new life story to capture on film before it's too late. They'll meet people who have taken part in some of the most important moments in our history and are challenged by the effects of dementia. The series will tell the stories of people who have broken world records, stood in controversial elections and fought in wars. As well as exploring the impact dementia has on partners, family and friends, the films are used as a tool to bring people together and celebrate the lives of their loved ones.
