We will be sharing all the generous sponsors who have helped @jordan.balfry on her journey to the dome over the next few days #melbournerose #rosefashion #communitysupport

19.01.2022 We have no doubt our Melbourne Rose is going to knock it out of the park tonight on stage with Daithi at the Rose of Tralee International Festival! Best of Luck Jordan

19.01.2022 Hi folks, Our Melbourne Rose Jordan Balfry and over 36 Rose's and Escorts from the Rose of Tralee class of 2019 will be taking part in a digital relay on Saturday April 18th to raise funds for Pieta House, Preventing Suicide and Self Harm. A message from Jordan;... I will be lacing up my running shoes at 4pm Melbourne time to commence my hour long run (prayers welcome...its been a good Easter for excessive chocolate consumption). Social distancing measures will be taken of course (although people will likely retreat quickly from me anyway when they catch sight of my rhubarb face). So please, in the absence of Darkness Into Light Melbourne running this year...consider a direct donation that can be done with the click of a finger on the comfort of your couch. There is no need to explain the value of this organisation, especially at a time like this when our mental resilience is tested daily. Lots of love LINK: https://www.gofundme.com/f/r88dn-SocialDistanceDigitalRelay

16.01.2022 Check out our Melbourne Rose Jordan Balfrys interview on The Celtic Club Melbourne Podcast where she talks about her role as a Mental Health Occupational Therapist in a high security mens Prison, her life in Melbourne, her journey to becoming our 2019 Melbourne Rose and why she believes the Rose of Tralee International Festival is ahead of its time because it was never really about the beauty, whats inherent in the Rose of Tralee is it knows its values and it knows its message...that is not external beauty, its not about looking a certain way or being a certain size. We couldnt have said it better ourselves #melbournerose #roseoftralee #celticclubpodcast #irishdownunder

01.01.2022 An update on the 2020 Rose of Tralee International Festival: The impact of Covid-19 continues to be felt worldwide and our thoughts are with all of those who h...ave been affected by the very sad losses this pandemic is causing. These are unprecedented times for all and the health and safety of our communities remains the utmost concern. Over the past few weeks, our team have been considering how best we could safely deliver some, or all, of our 2020 Festival events. Taking into account Government guidelines, the safety of our communities and the ability to deliver a wonderful Festival; we have decided to postpone our 2020 Festival until August 2021. This is the first time in our 61 year history that the Festival has been postponed, but it is the right decision as we all play our part right now in keeping each other safe and well. The Rose of Tralee International Festival operates on a yearlong basis, in Irish communities worldwide; and we will continue to harness the goodwill of our extended Rose Family in supporting communities and charitable efforts over the next 12 months. Similarly, we will each have a role to play in restoring our communities and economies following the pandemic. We look forward to coming together in celebration, showcasing our wonderful communities; and welcoming you all to Tralee in August 2021. In the meantime, we salute the leadership and the selfless efforts of frontline and support staff everywhere; and among them the efforts by many of our Roses, Rose Escorts and wider Rose Family, including our 2019 Rose of Tralee, Dr Sinad Flanagan. Our immediate priority is to support the health and civic authorities in doing whatever we can to keep each other safe and well, and ultimately to protect lives. #staystafe #stayhome #safelives #roseoftralee
