Avon and Somerset Police are trailing using GPS tracking devices to help relatives of people suffering from dementia.

Keith's father Len has been found numerous times wandering the street alone, but as Rebecca Johnson found out it is hoped that the GPS tracker will help find him if he goes missing.

The number of people living with dementia is around 900,000 - predicted to rise to 1.6m by the year 2040.
