From initially requesting nominations through a video online which received nearly 4K views here.
To an award ceremony with An Tanaiste Micheal Martin at Peamount Healthcare here, then the most recent presentation night, This experience has been very rewarding.
Special mention for local hero Ciara Fogarty who, was nominated more than once, however, instead, she agreed to get involved from the get go. I want to thank her for her efforts.
