Welcome to the Grow Remote Ashford Wicklow chapter! This group was set up in November 2018 and is run by volunteers. We are keen to build a thriving community of remote workers in and around Ashford/ Newtownmountkennedy in Co. Wicklow. Regardless of your industry, background and whether you're already working remotely or you're interested in exploring remote work, we're keen to hear from you.
We have a dual goal:
connect remote workers in the region, share stories and support each other
enable the 70% of surveyed commuters who said they would take a similar job in Wicklow if available, to actually find remote work
Let's uncover and showcase Wicklow's talent together!
A note from the founder of Grow Remote
Welcome to Grow Remote on ChangeX! We're building a national movement to connect remote workers in Ireland. We believe we’re in the middle of a seismic change in ways of working that opens up a whole new opportunity for a better quality of life, for remote workers and for rural Ireland. We'll help you do this in your local community by starting a Grow Remote Chapter. Tracy Keogh, Founder of Grow Remote

If like me you're working between Wicklow and Dublin, check out the Grow Remote Dublin Launch Party on Wednesday 13 February. There's a great lineup of speakers and it will be a great opportunity to connect with other remote workers. Free tickets available at the link below.
