The songs that brought Dad back
When words became harder to find, music gave Simon and his dad Teddy a way to connect. Their car journeys would touch millions of hearts.
A true story worth sharing
When Ted McDermott developed dementia, his son Simon discovered that the songs Ted had loved all his life were still there. The videos they filmed singing together in the car became a worldwide sensation, reminding families everywhere of music's remarkable power to connect.
Their journey inspired a Pride of Britain Award, a Top 10 album and a feature film in Japan — and helped raise more than £150,000 for dementia charities.
