Clann has sent a follow-up report to the UN Special Procedures mandate-holders who wrote to the govt in 2021. The submission highlights the ways in which many affected people have been excluded from the State’s discriminatory justice & redress measures. clannproject.org/wp-content/upl…

Mari didn't know me from Adam, but she took time to search through records for me so my illegally adopted uncle could be reunited with his family. That was mere months ago and I naively thought I'd have more time to thank her. Such a good person. May she rest in peace.

RIP - We are sorry to learn about the passing of Mari Steed and express our deepest condolences to her family and friends. She was a steadfast campaigner for many years seeking justice for survivors of Irish institutions, such as mother and baby institutions + Magdalene Laundries
