A Network for Midlife & Older Women
OWN would like to hear from older women regarding some research about women and divorce in the Republic of Ireland. A researcher is carrying out this work. We would like to meet older women who are divorced and whose family values and religious beliefs are strong. It is important to have your testimonies as nothing has ever been dealt with from the point of views of the litigants and that is why there is a gap in information about the issue.
If members are interested in taking part in this discussion a meeting will be arranged for the last week in October in Dublin to discuss your experiences in confidence with the researcher.
