We're Not Walking Around Wounded with the Kavanaugh Sisters

The Sisters Kavanagh, Joyce, June and Paula, are three sisters born into a large family of ten children in the late 1950s and early 1960s, raised in a disadvantaged area of Dublin. 

From the age of three or four and throughout their teenage years, they endured daily sexual abuse at the hands of their father. 

In 1989, they made the courageous decision to bring charges against him. The following year, the Irish State successfully prosecuted their father, resulting in a conviction and a seven-year prison sentence, of which he served five.

The Grip of Childhood Sexual Abuse’ is a 10 hour – non-fiction audio book in which they share openly and honestly all the knowledge, insights and understanding derived from over thirty years’ experience in recovery work as a direct result of being sexually abused as children.
