Shelter from the mind's storm at Liss Ard wellbeing centre

In 2008 evidence uncovered by an Irish law student led to the release of a man who had served 26 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. Now Niamh Gunn has a new mission — to create a National Wellbeing Centre for Ireland in the stunning surrounds of Liss Ard estate.

THE 80-hour-week job that kept her away from her young family, as she juggled planes and trains, had slowly been taking its toll. There was her father’s tragic suicide and her mother’s subsequent death from cancer.

But it was her miscarriage that tipped Niamh Gunn over the edge. She was broken, burned out.
