An abuse survivor, Trish Kearney has said that there is hope for recovery and that if "you are hurting and you need to tell somebody your secret, you can tell your secret and you can feel better with support".

Speaking last night on RTÉ's Late Late Show, the Cork woman shared her story of abuse at the hands of George Gibney, an internationally recognised swimming coach.
