‘I really wanted to give Mum and Dad a hug – it was awkward’

After months apart how does it feel when you can see but can't touch loved ones?

The day has finally arrived!

After many months of lockdown we’re all finally allowed to meet friends and family – outside and in groups of six or as two households.

For Kate, the relaxation means she can see her family, but will her mobility issues get in the way and prove problematic?

And for transplant recipient wife Holly, who has been strictly shielding for most of the year, after so long apart will it all feel a bit overwhelming and too awkward to see Kate’s family?

Will there be tears? And how tough will it be to not hug each other?

Produced by Amy Elizabeth.
