Aoife then had an opportunity to thank the people of Clonmel in supporting her through the Miss Ireland competition, including her friends and family as well as the local businesses who sponsored her. The engaged audience heard af the Miss World competition, which was held in Indonesia last month where Aoife represented Ireland. She was one of 10 finalists out of 130 chosen to perform "Dances of the World" and she was honoured to perform River Dance. Aoife spoke with grace and humility and captivated the room. She articulated how she will never forget her Clonmel roots. She commented that even when she travels all over the world representing Ireland, she even still meanages to support Tipperary GAA.
Aoife is very passionate about children and is currently Ambassador for Autism Ireland. The Miss Ireland winner will be seen gracing our catwalk in Clonmel in March 2014 for the Scoil Aonghusa Spring into Summer Fashion extravaganza. This event will take place to help raise much needs funds for children with physical and mental disabilities in Tipperary. During the event, Aoife also launched the Clonmel Retail Forum's website as well as their facebook page which is proving very popular with businesses and customers alike. The website allows local business owners an opportunity to promote their businesses free of charge. The facebook page compliments this by providing the community with regular competitions, offers and local information.
