A young Roscommon woman, who is a finalist in this year’s Miss Ireland competition, is taking on a major fundraising challenge in support of a charity that has played an important role in her own life.<\/p>\n
Latisha McCrudden (22) from Lisacul has chosen Roscommon Women’s Network as her nominated charity and is undertaking a series of physical challenges to raise awareness and support for its work.<\/p>\n
Throughout October, Latisha is climbing Croagh Patrick three times and completing 150 kilometres as part of her fundraising efforts.<\/p>\n
The cause is particularly close to her heart. She said Roscommon Women’s Network has supported her through difficult periods in her personal life and continues to be a source of encouragement and empowerment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The organisation is also one of her sponsors as she competes in the Miss Ireland finals.<\/p>\n
“Roscommon Women’s Network supports women through some of life’s most difficult moments, providing a safe space, practical support, counselling, education, training, connection and opportunities to rebuild confidence and move forward,” Latisha explained.<\/p>\n

Latisha will compete at the Miss Ireland 2026 Grand Final on Saturday, November 2nd at The Fairways Hotel in Dundalk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A young Roscommon woman, who is a finalist in this year’s Miss Ireland competition, is taking on a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":668096,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[61,60,43],"class_list":["post-668095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ireland","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/668095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=668095"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/668095\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/668096"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=668095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=668095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=668095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
