In another, officers helped an 86-year-old woman with dementia who was found wandering the streets lost and disorientated.

“We’ve been reading your comments and this has given us a far better understanding of what you need to see more of from us. We know you loved the personal stories of Nick who was living in a shared house and more recently, Norma who had dementia and was lost in Sheffield.

“We’re really keen to understand what impact a series like this can have on your opinion of South Yorkshire Police.”
