Our story

It began as a simple Christmas gift, reviving old, forgotten photos scanned by a departed parent. By restoring them with colour, music and sound those faded memories were transformed into vivid, emotional films that felt as real as the day they happened. The reaction was deeply moving, proof of just how powerful and precious our memories are.

This inspired a larger purpose: to help others preserve and celebrate their stories. Especially for those affected by dementia as these living memories can offer moments of joy, connection, and recognition. It’s something that has touched our own families personally. It’s why we make a contribution from our service profits to UK charities helping to find a long term solution to help dementia sufferers.
