Congrats to the new Young Greens National Committee

Over here at younggreens.ie we've all finally recovered from the Young Greens convention which was held in picturesque Blessington Co. Wicklow. Many thanks to all those that came along and made the weekend great.

Congrations are in order for the new National Committee of the Young Greens who'll be looking to continue the great work of the Young Greens, campaigning and lobbying on the issues that matter to us.

Barra Roantree, (Wicklow, TCD) outgoing chair will stay on as press officer/communications officer publicising the hard work the others do.

Martha Dalton (Waterford now Trinity College Dublin studying History) has taken on the daunting but rewarding job of expansions, and will be working on building branches where we have none. If you've an interest in getting involved but there's no branch near you, Martha can be contacted at expansions[at]younggreens.ie

Congrats again to all!
