MOVING stories of how families in the district have coped with dementia during the pandemic have been shared in a new short film. Commissioned by Dementia Friendly Keighley and Bradford2025 MAKE:FILM, the film hears from a number of people who were separated from loved ones with Alzheimer’s and dementia in care homes. For Keighley filmmaker Scott Coulthard it was a subject close to his heart, as he learns how to cope with his grandmother’s memory loss. He said: “The interviews were really emotional. “I heard about the difficulties of dementia not just for the person, but for the people around them. I also learned about the amount of help and support and groups there are and that carers are so much more than just workers, they have to be family.”
