Years of abuse, decades of neglect. Now child abuse survivors want justice

Since Margaret McGuckin and others started their campaign on behalf of the children – now adults - abused in institutions across Northern Ireland, hundreds of people have come forward with personal stories of sexual, physical, mental and emotional abuse.
