Camille O'Sullivan Honors Bessborough Survivors

Camille O’Sullivan is set to perform at this Sunday’s Bessborough commemoration, a poignant gathering for survivors and families honoring lives lost at the former mother and baby institution. Moved by her friend Noelle Brown’s story and the ongoing silence around trauma, O’Sullivan sees her music as a vital voice for those still unheard. Bessborough, operating for 76 years, saw nearly 10,000 mothers and 8,000 babies admitted — with 923 child deaths confirmed, many buried without records. Now, Cork City Council’s plan to build 140 apartments on the site sparks fresh controversy, with a court ruling expected July 9th. Attendees are urged to bring a flower — a quiet tribute to the children who never got to grow up. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
