To help women develop their leadership skills and learn about how to initiate positive change, Fingal County Council has announced that it will be running a new programme She Leads, We Lead for local residents, with sessions led by a team of women who have all championed change in their own communities through effective leadership.

Starting on November 15, the free eight-week programme will explore the achievements, challenges and opportunities that women can experience through community action. The seminars aim to motivate and train women to become effective leaders in their community, helping to improve confidence through the development of key skills and by sharing understanding around how other leaders work.
