Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate the incredible leadership of our outgoing Director, Grainne. 💜
Grainne has been a passionate advocate for inclusion and equality, championing the voices and leadership of people with a learning disability in everything she does.
Throughout her time with us, she has worked alongside many inspiring women with a learning disability - co-facilitating programmes, sharing platforms, and ensuring their experiences and expertise shape the work we do.
Grainne truly models the theme of International Women’s Day this year “Give to Gain”, as her leadership has always been about ensuring individuals share their successes to inspire others and show them that they can succeed too.
Grainne has always led with a strong focus on partnership, respect and creating opportunities for others to shine.
Because of Grainne, many women with a learning disability have had the chance to build confidence, develop their voices and lead conversations that matter.
As we mark International Women’s Day, we celebrate not only Grainne’s impact, but also the many amazing women with a learning disability she has worked alongside and supported.
Thank you, Grainne, for your commitment, your inclusive leadership, and for inspiring so many along the way. 💜
