Welcome to the Irish Women's Network of BC

The Irish Women's Network of BC was formed in 1998 to connect Irish women and women of Irish descent in British Columbia for conversation, networking opportunities and mutual support by coordinating events and activities, encouraging local gatherings based on similar interests and by connecting women across the Lower Mainland through email, facebook and twitter.

The newly formed Irish Covid-19 Support Group recently secured funding from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, through the Irish Consulate in Vancouver, to hire a part-time, temporary Communications Officer as part of a strategy to further support and promote virtual engagement of the Irish community in BC especially during these more challenging times.
Moving forward they will be providing more information about Irish Organisations, Irish Interest Groups, Irish Businesses & Irish Run Events.
