Joanne O'Riordan is the ‘Outstanding Young Person of World’
After being advised yesterday of the prestigious acknowledgement from Junior Chamber International, she said: “I’m simply blown away by the fact that I have been awarded such an accolade. To say I’m over the moon would be an understatement.”
The Millstreet, Co Cork woman, a criminology student at University College Cork, was told of the honour yesterday by JCI president Ismail Haznedar. She will travel to Japan in November to receive the award.
