Nina Carberry, MEP
My name is Nina Carberry, your newly elected Fine Gael MEP for Midlands North-West. I am a champion jockey, a businesswoman, a sports enthusiast, an author, and you might even recognise me from Dancing with the Stars or Ireland’s Fittest Family. As a mother of two young girls, a life in politics found its way onto my radar looking at my family and wondering what the future held in store for them. I’ve always had the mantra if you want to make a difference then you need to put your hand up. My life and career have given me a lot, and I now want to give something back. Born and raised on a farm in Co. Meath, I am married to a Kildare man. I have spent 20 years of my life travelling this region meeting people and seeing first-hand the many challenges and opportunities facing us.
- Fighting to ensure every town and village gets its fair share
- Opportunities for families to not just live but thrive locally
- A strong, common sense voice for rural and farming communities
- Equality of opportunity in education and work for our young people
