Up Close: Online Abuse

This video contains scenes which some viewers may find upsetting

Presenter Jordan Moates explores the devastating consequences of online abuse and asks if enough is being done to tackle the problem.

The programme hears from the mum of a 16-year-old Omagh girl who took her own life after years of cyber bullying, and also from those who have to deal with online misogyny, threats and hate while living and working and in the public eye.

Studio guests from the fields of cyber safety, policing and mental health include former Nato intelligence officer Philip Ingram and NI's Mental Health Champion Professor Siobhan O'Neill.

Viewers are advised that they may find some of the details upsetting.
