What are your hopes for the future generations of your family? Share with Cancer Research UK - £200 voucher to be won

A little certainty, some hope and just to be able to do things spontaneously again.

For my Granddaughter to be kind and thoughtful. Also to enjoy life.

To be kind to others, respect other people and belongings. Respect climate change and don’t waste.

I want my grandsons to have confidence. I think that if you have confidence you can do anything you want to. I also, of course, want them to be happy and to be satisfied with their lives.

For now, because they are around 5 and 3 years old (and because we only see them infrequently and then by Zoom at the moment) I have not got round to giving advice to our grandchildren.

When I do it might well be something along the lines of "be true to yourself and your beliefs, provided you can justify holding them and be certain that they do not produce damaging consequences for others".

I would hope that there is a viable planet on which future generations can live in peace and co-operation with the rest of the world.

My wife an I have "mirror" wills in which Cancer Research UK are potential beneficiaries. In the meantime we support them with monthly donations by direct debit and occasional "top-ups" when we feel moved to do so.

Always remember that you as an individual have rights but with rights come responsibilities to other people in your family, community, country and the world.

Be healthy and happy and kind to other people, animals an our planet

Look for the good in everyone - we all have it, but it may be easier to see in some more than others.

To be able to lie under an apple tree in an orchard with a true love with the sun dappling down on them as they giggle and fall deeper in love instead of relying on a zoom call.

LIVE IN HARMONY WITH EVERYONE AND NATURE

i hope for science to to develop medicines to eliminate the evil cancers and viruses that spread around our planet.
i wish that we could all work together to feed everyone in this world, why should some people have an abundance of wealth and food when others starve. there's enough resources for every one on this earth.
i know we need to explore and find answers for the future. but why spend billions on travel to mars, when we should use this to secure our planets future for the generations t come.

1. Good things come in threes

2. Troubles come in threes

3. Remember what I said about threes?

Be kind. Look after the environment. Find a career you love, even if you could earn more elsewhere.

To have a happy and healthy life and to fulfill their dreams. Always look forward, have no regrets and never give up. You can be whatever you want to be but it does take effort, determination and sometimes a little bit of luck. If you expect nothing, you won’t be disappointed.

I would wish my grandchildren to have happiness, health and loving kindness to others.
To accept that bad things happen, and to rise above them
To hope for the best at all times, but plan for the worst.
To give, not to receive but because thats the right thing to do.
But above all continue to be the loving, funny, gorgoeus human beings they already are.

I hope for a healthy and better future for everyone this year.We need to think about protecting the planet for our children,granchildren and future generations

the times we are living in will be history to future generations.I hope they don't have to live through a pandemic,we never thought that we would.But I hope that people will have learned some lessons from it,and appreciate what they have. I hope that a cure can be found for cancer,so that future generations don't have to lose loved ones to it.I hope that, when my granddaughter grows up, there won't be the trolls on social media,and people can just be themselves,and not have to fit an ideal image.I also hope that people continue to get out and enjoy nature,that's one good thing that lockdown has taught us.

I would say be kind, laugh often and tell those you love that you do love them, take nothing for granted and always follow your dreams , don't live your life and feel 'if only' and lastly don't worry about what others think just live a good life .

I know it sounds daft to a lot of people but I pray every night that no-one harms, hurts my Grandchildren and that they lead a fulfilled life where they are happy,
I will tell my Grandchildren the same as I told my children that if they want to do something just do it and do not be put off with what other people say. You can do anything if you put your mind to it but along the way treat people with respect and they will give respect back.

To my 4 very different grandchildren;
Be kind.
Be open minded
Listen to others, talk less.
Love yourself, you are very special
Say yes more often than you say no
Try something new every day/week
Saying thank you matters
You are loved, even when you think you’re not
Learn how to be independent
Smile at strangers
Clearing your home of clutter also clears the mind, it’s true!
Learn to enjoy your own company.
Make friends from all walks of life, not just your walk of life
Personal presentation is important to your confidence, be the best you can within your budgets.
Work to live, don’t live to work.
There is no perfect human being, so stop trying, just be you
Friendship, respect and humour is the recipe for love, sex is just the cherry on the top.
Make your own decisions, some will be right, many will be wrong, take responsibility for both, it’s how we learn and grow.
Try not to judge others until you know all the facts.
Always look at the positives before the negatives, people like positive people.
Remember your opinion is just yours, others opinions are just as important, so listen and you may learn something new
Enough money is important to live a happy content life, being rich isn’t important, and comes with huge responsibility.

I hope they will have all they opportunities that, along with their own efforts, will give them a successful and happy life in whatever field they choose to enter; that doors will stop being closed to those who, in the eyes of many, just don't fit in.

I hope that in the future my grandchildren will be in happy and treat others as they would like to be treated

That this Covid year won’t take a toll on the children’s education & hopes.

For all of my family, I would wish for the happiness and good health that money cannot buy.

Make a simple and fair will for children and trust them to make the best use of it.
