Tramore Women's Group

This group began as a result of the county Waterford Social Inclusion Working Group who identified the need for capacity building work with women in Tramore, County Waterford. Funding for this work was mobilised through a combination of measures from the various groups involved in SIWG. The Women Centre was invited to outreach to this community in order to develop a women's group. This group began February 2004. 14 women still participate in this group and have developed a vision for sustaining this work in their own community.

"In my day, I stayed at home and looked after children and kept the house. I thought there was nothing I could do. Since I came to the Centre I had a whole new look at myself and found out there is something I can and want to do. It is a great new feeling. Long may it last."
