None of us – not least the new editor, two months in the job – anticipated that we'd still be working in our homes a year later. We have had to adapt and cope - like all our readers - to difficult personal circumstances while supporting each other remotely. We have set the agenda on local and national issues, from Golfgate to mother and baby homes, from unrivaled sports coverage to local courts. While we’ve been restricted to our homes, readers have turned to us online and traffic to our website and apps have soared. Good journalism is worth paying for, and paid-for journalism is vital for us to keep tackling the subjects that we do.
