ICA news: ‘Women of distinction’ are remembered at UL gathering

Organised by Limerick City and County Council, in association with UL, the event was attended by Sabina Higgins, as well as relatives of three ‘women of distinction’ being posthumously honoured — Charlotte Grace O’Brien, Sophia Pierce and Kate O’Brien.

“These ladies all lived most interesting lives. They were very ambitious and had a sense of equality. They broke the mould and were leaders, ahead of their time,” points out Limerick ICA PRO Patricia Cronin, who says ICA women are “a bit pioneering in their way too in terms of women coming out of the shadows”.
