A witness in Northern Ireland’s Institutional Abuse Inquiry has waived their right to anonymity for the first time.

Kate Walmsley, 57, spent five years in Derry’s Nazareth Home.

Her parents had separated, her father was struggling to bring up his four children and they were taken into care.

As well as the five years in the Derry home, she was also placed in a number of other residential institutions and foster homes.
