Claire Brock watched in terror from work as her husband’s boat was boarded by Israeli commandos

It’s difficult enough to imagine your husband travelling into a dangerous country as part of his ambition for social justice but for news anchor Claire Brock, her worst fears were met.

Claire met her husband Trevor Hogan while studying journalism at DCU, and after a couple of years of being friends, a single card on Valentine’s Day changed it all.

Ten years later, in 2013, the couple married, with their passion for social justice and heartfelt reporting bringing them closer than ever.

Trevor’s need to help others brought him to Palestine in 2011 where he joined the Freedom Flotilla who were attempting to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza.
