Naas woman elected as new head of Network Ireland Kildare

Network Ireland's branch in Kildare has announced that Naas woman Helen Dillon has been elected as their 2025 President.

“Helen has been on the committee for a number of years, and now is her time to step up,” said spokesperson Orla Dempsey.

“Helen is a private sector mentor of teens for career guidance, and whether they want to go for an apprenticeship, or to colleagues, as well as the parental support,” she said.

“In the world of life coaching, this is the avenue Helen chose,” she said.

With a background in industry and business, Helen established her coaching business in 2019 and specialised in working with teenagers.

She aims to inspire teenagers to find self-confidence and choose their own career path, and as incoming President, Helen introduced the theme for the year of ‘Let's Grow in 2025’.

“My theme for the year is ‘Growing Together’ whereby we all continue to grow personally and professionally on an individual level, side-by-side with our fellow members,” said Helen. “I hope that we can continue to grow together as a branch while welcoming new members into the fold.” Network Ireland is a voluntary organisation to promote the personal and professional development of women with 17 branches nationwide.

“Network Ireland Kildare has over 130 members and is going from strength to strength.” 

Membership is open to all women and is a great way to meet other like-minded women.
