FOR young people across Gwent, the coronavirus lockdown has meant not being able to see their beloved grandparents.
So, on our Facebook page, we asked you to send in messages and pictures from young people to their grandparents saying how much they are missing them during the lockdown – and the response we received was incredible.
Here are just a few of the pictures and messages we received.
