Counselling services are gearing up for an influx of calls from survivors of clerical abuse after the audits from the Church’s own watchdog are posted online.
The study into diocesan child protection measures in Raphoe, Derry, Dromore, Tuam, Kilmore and Ardagh and Clonmacnoise were carried out by Ian Elliot, chief executive of the National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church in Ireland.
