Mr Redmond's Mending Day

A misunderstanding can drive a family apart, but it can also draw them together again.

A dispersed family.

A family that has not met together in one place for many years.

George Redmond, growing old and aware that time is running out; Dorothy, a wife and mother whose mind has emptied of all the memories her husband still treasures; Steve and Linda, on opposing sides and unable to reconnect; Rebecca living abroad; and Gary, the youngest, who is a mystery to them all.

This family gathering is more than a chance to lay the past to rest. In fact, the next twenty-four hours may just change everything ...

The poignant and tender story about love, loss and the threads that make a family, from the renowned radio scriptwriter
