Who is your woman of the week?
It could be your Mam who’s been on the receiving end of many a stressed-out phonecall over the years or the best friend guaranteed to make you giggle and see the bright side of every situation.
We have teamed up with Littlewoods Ireland to show these special ladies some love.
Each week we have a €100 voucher from Littlewoods Ireland to give away to the most deserving woman so they can treat themselves to something special.
This week’s winner is Rachel Slater, nominated by her sister Samantha and below, Samantha tells us in her own words why Rachel deserves to win.
“I’ve decided to nominate my big sister Rachel, she is an incredibly special woman. There’s only 18 months between us, I’m currently 21, she is 23 and we’re very close”.
“Rachel graduated from college one year ago and straight after, she went to Paris and worked for Rick Owens for six months, in an internship position. Since returning last autumn, she’s managed to get herself a graduate job in a technical company”.
Rachel was nominated by her sister Samantha
“I’ve never met anyone more determined to go for what they want, or someone who stands for so many interests. She just got her yellow belt in karate- she does so much with her time and motivates me to chase my dreams and be who I want to be”.
“I admired her so much when she was in Paris, for having the ability to stand on her own two feet, even when times were difficult and she was under so much pressure”.
“Since moving back to Dublin in autumn, she has been the most amazing support to me during my final year studying English in university”.
“She had a part-time job in a café at the time also so she’d bring coffee, sandwiches, cakes to me (and my friends!) throughout the year”.
“I used to call into the café where she worked to talk and de-stress and she’d be there for me 24/7. She is always the one I call when I need to talk, Rachel takes an interest in everything I say and encourages me with all passions”.
“Since finishing my final year and finding a job myself in Dublin, I’ve been completely broke and I feel like I haven’t been able to repay her at all for everything she did for me throughout the year”.
“I would LOVE to take her on some amazing holiday, or weekend away, to pamper her, but right now I can’t afford it. Thus, this is why I am nominating her as your woman of the week, I want to give her an opportunity to treat herself as she truly deserves it”.
We hope Rachel enjoys her Littlewoods Ireland voucher. If you have someone in mind for our Woman of the Week then please email us at [email protected] and include an image of your nominated woman.
Get in touch and tell us about your best friend since childhood, your grandmother, mother or aunt who is always there in a crisis and the sister who makes you laugh… we want to know who makes your week brighter.
