Reflecting on the impact of the pandemic, what will our post-Covid world look like?
What questions does it pose for us as individuals and as a global community?
What has my lockdown experience been like?
How have we been coping as individuals and communities?

Over the course of the next year we will be sharing material – articles, radio and video clips, prayers and reflections which we hope you will find helpful.
