Meet the Founding Members of TallaghtOnline.ie
Behind every great community project are people who share a vision and a desire to make a difference. For TallaghtOnline.ie, that vision is shared by its two founding members, Ken Harrington and Alan Brady, who bring different skills and strengths to the project, united by a common goal: to create an online platform that celebrates Tallaght and serves the people who call it home.
Ken Harrington
The Community ConnectionKen Harrington plays a key role in building the community connections that will help make TallaghtOnline.ie a valuable resource for local people. His focus is on connecting with individuals, community groups, local organisations, and businesses, helping to ensure that the website reflects the people, stories, and activities that make Tallaght special.
A strong community website needs more than information; it needs relationships, trust, and participation. Ken’s role is to help build those connections, encourage local involvement, and bring the community closer together through a shared online space.
From highlighting local initiatives and community events to helping people’s voices be heard, Ken’s contribution is central to the project’s ambition to make TallaghtOnline.ie a genuine community platform.

From the website’s layout and branding to its technical development and future digital opportunities, Alan’s role is to establish the online foundations that will allow TallaghtOnline.ie to grow and evolve.
