Listen Later

*This programme contains themes of an adult nature which some listeners may find upsetting. Listener discretion is advised*

This podcast is dedicated to all of those who have suffered with gender based violence in their lives. In this episode, I am joined by Róisín Nic Lochlainn, NUIGSU President, Róísín McGrath, Vice-Auditor of FemSoc and Lorraine Lally, Barrister and Family Law Mediator. Each of these guests brings forward a different perspective on gender based violence in Ireland with some sharing their own experiences with this topic alongside some anonymous submissions from other Irish women. Each guest also brings with them an abundance of knowledge on the topic, which highlights the short comings of Irish Law and Garda Enforcement in Ireland. 

Join us in making a change. Our petition to the Minister for Justice will be released in the coming days, and we would urge you all to get involved and have your say.
