In 1973, Terri Harrison was 18, pregnant and unmarried. The ultimate taboo in Catholic Ireland.
She decided to flee Dublin and travel to London to start a new life, hopeful that she could get a job and safely raise her son there.
Instead Terri was "abducted by a priest" whilst heavily pregnant and forcibly returned to Ireland to live in a notorious mother and baby institution, where her son was later "kidnapped" and put up for adoption aged five-weeks-old.
Terri, now 70, was among thousands of young women who fled from the country to avoid the brutal Irish institutions, where unmarried mothers were often incarcerated for a minimum of two years.
