‘We should be educated about perimenopause in our 30s’

Here is an interview I did for Image magazine. Written by Eva Hall, photos by Barry McCall We go through five stages of hormones in our lives, so why are we so embarrassed about the last one, asks Lorraine Keane, who has been taking perimenopausal supplements for years now. Lorraine Keane was delighted to have been asked to be the face of a women’s health supplement. But she was taken aback when she heard the word ‘menopause’. Lorraine, a glamorous mum-of-two who has had a successful career as a TV reporter and presenter, likes to keep busy. “I want to…

Fashion Relief Returns!

Myself and Oxfam Ireland are bringing FASHION RELIEF back to Galway and Dublin in 2020 – and this year, Fashion Relief is bigger and better than ever!

We’ll be in Galway’s Galmont Hotel on Sunday 1st March and in Dublin’s RDS on Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th March. Tickets from only €6 available here

Florida, The Trip Of A Lifetime!

Ok, I admit it, I’m a creature of habit. Killarney is my repeat stay-cation destination and when we travel abroad for a family holiday it’s always to the same spot in the south of France. So when Peter and I realised that our girls were fast-approaching the age when they might be too old to appreciate the magic of Disney, or more importantly the company of their parents on holiday, we decided to go for the family holiday of a lifetime to Florida. We kept the trip as a surprise until the last minute (leaving for Dublin airport). Their reaction…

Let’s Talk Hormones

Here’s something I’m really passionate about. Too many of us just aren’t aware of the impact our hormones have on our physical and mental health. This is something that effects all women, young girls, from the age of puberty onwards and knowledge is key. I have chaired and spoken at many conferences on women’s health and have learnt so much from wonderful women like Dr Mary Ryan (pictured above) a leading endocrinologist. There is a free hormone guide available on the Cleanmarine website (Cleanmarine are an Irish company who produce natural Omega 3 and vitamin blends to help to regulate…

Fashion Relief 2019

Once again I’m teaming up with Oxfam Ireland for FASHION RELIEF. In May we raised an incredible €60,000 for those suffering from extreme hunger at our 2018 event in the RDS, where the public bagged bargains from the wardrobes of their favourite celebs, designers and boutiques.
