Anna's grandfather had his life savings stolen by his carers, and she wants to stop it happening to anyone else. Anna knew something wasn't right, but she didn't realise what until it was too late. Now, as the carers go on trial for theft, Anna invites us to join her during the court case, as she speaks to people involved in her grandfather's care, and to people who might be able to stop something similar from happening again.

In Bridlington, Anna chats to her grandfather's neighbour Martin, who describes the kind of man he was, how they became friends, and what happened when he tried to raise his concerns. In Hull she speaks to Ben, a police officer with Humberside Police who deals with economic crimes, and in Leeds to Kay, the Crown Prosecutor who oversaw the legal case against her grandfather's carers.

Anna also speaks to Joel from Age UK, and Veronica from Hourglass, two charities devoted to supporting older people and ending the abuse they suffer.

But as the court case reaches its conclusion, will the system do its bit to protect other vulnerable people from these carers, and other people who might wish to take advantage of them?
