Agnes Lunny looks ahead to 2026

Thought for the Week

Available for over a year

A thought for the year ahead with the inspirational Agnes Lunny. She lost her sight as a child. Her parents and brother died in a fire that engulfed their family home. Her resilience, courage and faith have helped her find the light amid all the darkness. She is CEO of Positive Futures, an organisation which works with people with learning disabilities to ensure that they are treated equally in society. Agnes Lunny joins Audrey Carville to reflect on her life, her sources of hope that she has learned about herself and the world around her, and her hopes for 2026.
