Grace Boland, TD
Grace is a proud North County Dubliner, dedicated to her community, family, and business. Her late father, John Boland, was a Fine Gael TD and served as Minister for Health, Minister for the Environment, Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Education. He also served as a Senator prior to being elected as a TD.
As a mum of school-going twin daughters, Grace understands the challenges families face today. She established her law practice in Skerries to help businesses in Fingal navigate their legal issues effectively.
She also serves as a director of Teen-Turn, a charity that encourages girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. With years of political involvement, she is passionate about advocating for the concerns of families in her area.
Her experiences as a mum, lawyer, caregiver for her own mum, and small business owner drive her commitment to being a strong voice for the people of Dublin Fingal West. She is proud to continue her family’s legacy of public service in North County Dublin and intends, if elected, to advocate for significant investment and upgrading of essential infrastructure, along with planning for the future and addressing the local and national impacts of climate change.
Grace also wants to deliver more affordable housing, to include suitable housing for every stage of the life cycle.
In addition, she will champion affordable and flexible childcare options, additional school place and special education school places, and the establishment of a third-level campus in North County Dublin.
