Surviving Mother and baby homes, and Institutional care homes

This week we chat to Trish Reilly, Irish Traveller Singer/Songwriter. Trish talks to us about how as a child of 8 years of age, she was taken from her family, along with 3 siblings, and placed into institutional care.

Our second guest is Felix O'Neill, Who was born in a mother and baby home and left at 18 years of age. He speaks to us about the Harrowing reality of being born into care, as well as watching your mother being worked to death. 

This is a very emotive episode and listener discretion is advised. This episode contains topics that may trigger those who are vulnerable to such topics.
