Good Friday Agreement baby Erin McArdle on turning 25 in milestone anniversary year

It's not just the Good Friday Agreement turning 25 this year as one of the first babies born in Northern Ireland after the signing of the historic peace deal is also marking a milestone anniversary.

Erin McArdle was born at Antrim Area Hospital less than an hour after the Agreement was signed on April 10, 1998. She will turn 25 years old on Easter Monday.

Erin has grown up aware of her symbolic status as a peace baby and used it to reach across the divide in her native Ballymena.
