North West Today

Available for 28 days

Three surgical associations from across the UK and Ireland have urged the new health minister to modernise surgical services to avoid limiting access to care. A Draperstown woman born with a rare genetic skin condition that covers 98% of her body in birthmarks tells us she is learning to embrace her appearance after years of trying to hide it. And ahead of a sold-out Kingfishr gig in Ebrington Square, we speak to one of the support acts - Donegal singer McGrath. Presented by Teresa Craig.
