After six years at the helm of Castleknock TidyTowns, founding chairperson Evelyn Pender has recently stepped aside. From January '25, Patricia Sheehan will take on the role.
In 2019, Evelyn re-established Castleknock TidyTowns, after an 18-year gap. Under Evelyn’s leadership, the group has grown to a team of over 60 volunteers actively promoting community involvement as well as adopting heritage, environmental and sustainability projects.
Patricia has been a passionate volunteer with the group for six years and has served on the steering committee for the past two. Her hands-on experience and deep commitment to the TidyTowns ethos made her an ideal choice to guide the group into the future.
At a recent presentation, Evelyn reflected on the accomplishments in Castleknock over the past six years, including numerous awards, long-lasting projects and the fostering of strong community spirit. She also shared that it has "been an honour to work alongside such a dedicated team of volunteers. I'm more than happy to remain on as a member of the CTT Steering Committee. I am confident that Patricia will continue to build on our successes and bring fresh ideas to Castleknock TidyTowns.”
Patricia expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to lead the team. “Evelyn has set a high standard of leadership and I’m excited to build on the strong foundation she has established. I look forward to working with the community to create an even more vibrant and sustainable Castleknock.”
