A Lifetime of Caring, Positive Futures, and Bogus Electric Boxes

A lifetime of caring; we meet 92 year old Jenni who has cared for her son Martin and how the charity Positive Futures have helped her. Also, the case of a bogus electric box scam.

This week we meet Jenni, a 92 year old woman who has cared for her son Martin his entire life. Martin is 58, has Down's Syndrome, and Jenni reflects on the times they've shared together - family holidays, his love of dancing and bowling, and his favourite musician Elvis. But now she's had to make a decision she was dreading, Martin has gone in to a residential home. Jenni explains how difficult that decision was and how the charity Positive futures helped her.
Also, we hear from one Northern Irish business owner who fell victim to a bogus electrical box scam. The scam, leaving people hundreds of thousands of pounds out, has resulted in three men ending up in court.
