Today on Shut the Front Door, we have the honour of being joined by the formidable Vicky Phelan. Women’s health advocate and mother to Amelia and Darragh, Vicky found herself thrust into the public spotlight as a result of the CervicalCheck crisis in 2018.

Author of the powerful autobiography “Overcoming”, Vicky describes herself as being “definitely a Scorpio”… It’s with great pleasure that I now introduce Vicky Phelan to Shut the Front Door…
