A WOMAN who suffered abuse from the age of
just three in a South Belfast children’s care home has called for the
immediate implementation of a redress panel to allow victims the
opportunity of justice before their deaths. Margaret McGuckian (58) was
speaking as the latest phase of the Historical Abuse Inquiry began on
Monday (January 5) at Banbridge Courthouse.
This module is focused on claims of abuse at the former Nazareth House Children’s Home and Nazareth Lodge Children’s Home on the Ormeau Road and will be the biggest section of the inquiry with over 100 witnesses having come forward. A campaigner for the past seven years and a leading figure in the Survivors And Victims of Institutional Abuse group (Savia), Margaret lived at the Sisters of Nazareth run Nazareth House, between the ages of three and 11.
