Many couples spend a lot of time and money building their families. For some, it can often come easier than it does for others. In 1978, the first baby was born via IVF, giving hope to many parents looking to have a baby.
Tomorrow is World IVF Day so we want to hear from people who have gone through their own IVF journey, and how the ability to conceive via IVF has changed so many people’s lives…
Joining Andrea to discuss is Fertility Coach & best selling author of ‘Still Trying to Conceive’, Helena Tubridy and listeners.

Many people living in rural areas cannot access local towns and villages on foot due to the lack of footpaths and safe roads. With little to no public transport across rural areas, locals are forced to drive their cars, when they may not be needed. Those that do not have cars face treacherous walks on the side of busy roads due to the lack of sufficient infrastructure.
We want to hear from our listeners today: does your area need more footpaths, and do we have to fight so hard to get them?
Joining Andrea to discuss is Fianna Fáil Cllr, Patrick McGowan, as well as listeners.

This Sunday marks the All-Ireland final, where, for the first time in 20 years, Mayo will face Kerry.
