About 1 in 7 women in Ireland will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. Approximately 3,700 new cases are diagnosed each year and up to 20% of these patients can then go on to develop Lymphedema, a problem with their lymphatic system, which requires regular lymphatic drainage. One such patient is Melanie Hudson who has found that while hospital treatments for the cancer itself have certainly improved for patients, there is certainly a lack of post treatment aftercare and HSE lymphatic drainage specialists, especially in the Roscommon area. Adrianne chats here with Melanie about her experience and they are then joined by Martin Daly TD, who has been putting forward Melanie’s plight to the Health Minister and he updates her on his progress to date.

The Immigrant Council of Ireland’s Ukraine Civil Society Forum (UCSF), established in Ireland in the wake of the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, has welcomed the extension of Temporary Protection status for Ukrainians in Europe to March 2027. To discuss what this means for Ukrainian refugees here in Ireland, Adrianne is joined by Brian Killoran of the UCSF.
