Letters to the Editor: Women who led the fight for justice

'Vicky Phelan was the beacon of light for many women, whose health was treated as an afterthought by the State.'

We feel a great sense of loss at the death of Vicky Phelan. Hearing so many tributes to Vicky on radio and in the media in general, I wish I had known her, and I feel I did.

She touched so many lives with her stubborn refusal to be silenced.
