As the nation had parts of their lives put on hold throughout successive lockdowns, young people were faced with school closures, remote university learning and the inability to socialise at perhaps the most pivotal stage.
Now, while the cost-of-living crisis is biting across demographics, generation rent faces tax increases, falling wages and the burden of increasing student debt.
We would like to hear from 18 to 30-year-olds in the UK about how these huge global events have shaped their lives and the choices they make.
Are you making more “sensible” decisions when it comes to degree subjects or career options? Have you passed on the opportunity to go travelling or are you living at home for longer than planned? Are you taking any work offers?
Or, are you throwing caution to the wind, and making up for the Covid “lost years” by partying more and chasing your dreams all while trying to make ends meet?
Perhaps you have other long-term concerns, about the climate crisis, or the potential outcomes of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Whatever your situation, if you feel that your approach to life has been massively impacted by collective anxieties about the bigger picture, we want to hear about it.
