Vicky meets new choir member Steve, who has just been diagnosed with dementia, and catches up with the choir's youngest singer, Julie, who was diagnosed at 51. She also sets the choir their biggest challenge to date: they are going to sing live on stage with pop superstar Tom Grennan in front of 20,000 people at Nottingham's Splendour Festival. Vicky is desperate to engage a younger audience in her fight to create awareness around huge issues such as diagnosis waiting times and the lack of information and basic support, spreading the message further than ever before.
