Share your story: What are your plans and ambitions for 2021?

It may not feel it right now, but, hopefully, Ireland and the world will emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic at some stage later this year.

The virus has caused immense damage and suffering, but we thought – at least just for a few moments – it would be good to look to the future and pick what we are most looking forward to doing in 2021.

Maybe it is just to sit in a cafe and watch the world go by;
or perhaps it is to attend a show;
or hug your parents;
or host a birthday party.

Whatever it is, we’d like to hear about it. You can attach a photograph if you wish.
