However, the public protest, in tandem with similar events throughout the country, will proceed this evening. One of three organisers of the protest in Edenderry, Evelyn Lynch has been a SNA since 2002. Together with her fellow SNAs, Sharon Farrell (Scoil Bhríde NS) and Denise Lloyd (St Mary's Secondary School), she is hoping to see a groundswell of local support for their cause at the public protest this evening. I am thinking about the SNAs of the future and how our current job insecurity will impact their careers," Evelyn concluded.
