IN PICTURES: Féile Derry honours local outstanding women at Roisin Barton Awards

The awards were in celebration of community champion, Roisin Barton

In celebration of our dear friend and community champion, Roisin Barton, Féile Derry honoured the incredible contributions of 10 outstanding women in our community for International Women's Day in the Maldron Hotel.

A heartfelt thanks to our honourees Candace Partridge, Daisy Mules, Jean Rodgers, Karinne Doherty, Kathleen McCallion, Kathleen Simpson, Monica McGuigan, Shauna Gill and Megan Nicell (Family of Sister Clare Crockett), and the late Sadie Callan and Anne Doherty who were represented by their families.

These women have worked tirelessly to better the lives of those in the Bogside, Brandywell, Bishop Street and Fountain areas over many years.

This event was part of Féile's Connect:Interact:Create Programme, funded by The Executive Office's Central Good Relations Fund.
