The HSE has reached a settlement and apologised to the family of a jockey who died following a fall in a point-to-point race after acknowledging that his care in hospital fell below expected standards.

Jack Tyner died back in February 2011 having suffered a serious head injury in a fall at a point-to-point meeting in Dungarvan, Co Waterford.

Jack’s mother Mary Tyner joined us to talk about her son's life and legacy.
