Demonstration On Family Court System Taking Place in Dublin

Longford's Anna Kavanagh is one of the "Walk In Our Shoes" campaign organisers.

A demonstration is taking place in Dublin as part of a campaign for a family court system that is transparent, trauma-informed and trustworthy.

The Walk In Our Shoes event will see people gathering at the Four Courts this morning, before departing and walking silently to Leinster House for 12 noon.

People taking part will be wearing black, and carrying pairs of children's shoes to represent the children whose futures are being decided in courtrooms they may never see.

Local events took place across the Midlands on Sunday.

Longford's Anna Kavanagh is one the campaign's organisers.
