Two sons find out if their father is offered a place at a care home

Ben and Nick Wright, both in their 20s, have been full time carers for their dad for the last 7 years. Tom Wright was just 56 when he was diagnosed with dementia and his sons were just 15 and 20 at the time.

In February Ben and Nick told Victoria about the strain caring for their father had taken on them, effectively they'd both put their lives on hold to look after him. They said they were agonising with a decision about whether to put their father into long term care.

Ben and Nick, who decided they would like their father to receive some long-term care, have been fighting for a place at a care home in Manchester. Victoria tells Ben and Nick news they've been waiting to hear.
