Standing up for Ireland

Joeanne Bailey
Waterford County Council
Waterford City South
I am living in the Kilcohan area of Waterford City with my husband Ian and our son. I have a BA in Hospitality Management and Business from SETU, as well as a level 5 certificate in Childcare. I have worked behind the scenes in Sinn Féin for 15 years and I was proud to be on David Cullinane’s team for the last general election. In 2021 I was co-opted to the council and hit the ground running to represent the people of Waterford. I now work as a full-time Sinn Féin Councillor and I am passionate about delivering affordable housing in Waterford. I have also taken on many council committee roles, including Housing, Environment, Community Safety Partnership and the WWETB.
