The campaign for a law in the name of former footballer Frank Kopel has visited the home of Dundee United, the club where he played for a decade.

His wife Amanda Kopel, who has led calls for free personal care to be extended to dementia patients aged under 65, was joined at Tannadice by Scottish Conservative MSP Miles Briggs.

The former Manchester United player was diagnosed with dementia aged 59, with Mrs Kopel paying £1200 a month for care until he died aged 65 in 2014, just weeks after he qualified for free personal care on his birthday.

Mr Briggs has brought forward a member's bill to implement what has become known as Frank's Law.

If successful, the legislation would see those suffering conditions like dementia - but are under the age of 65 - receive the same free personal care provided to those over that age.

The member's bill consultation is open until October 6, and the Tannadice visit is aimed at encouraging more individuals and organisations to take part.

Mrs Kopel said: "The army of supporters grows each day, as the people of Scotland realise we need Frank's Law."
