Disability groups angry over abuse report

DISABILITY groups and campaigners have criticised the long-delayed report into 33 years of child abuse at two Brothers of Charity centres in Galway.

Yesterday, campaigners claimed the report was downgraded because victims were mentally disabled and in some cases unable to articulate their experiences.

Disability advocates Inclusion Ireland said its members were angry and saddened by the contents of the report on sexual and physical abuse at Kilcornan residential home in Clarinbridge and the Holy Family School in Renmore.
