Local Faces: Betty Whelan
St Dominic’s is a vibrant and busy community in the Old Bawn area of Tallaght. Sitting right in the middle of it is Dominic’s community centre and this week’s star is Betty Whelan, it’s proud Chairperson, writes Ken Doyle.
Betty is a Ballyfermot native who made the long journey south-west to Tallaght many years ago.
