Today is National Grandparents Day and ALONE, the organisation which supports older people, is asking members of the public to reach out to any older people in their lives this year. It has been a tough year for grandparents out there who might not have been able to hug their grandchildren. It is time to show them some love - do you have a message for a special grandparent?  Andrea chats to former Fianna Fail politician Mary O’Rourke and musician Paddy Cole
