Announcing the selection of Cllr Lynch, SDLP Leader Colum Eastwood MP said: “I have known Roisin Lynch for years and she is the most genuine politician, full of integrity, hope and ambition for the people she represents.
“As a businesswoman, working with local charities and mental health groups or serving as chair of St Comgall’s GAA, Roisin Lynch is steeped in this community. She has what it takes to be a great MLA and I know she’s going to fight to put the people of South Antrim first.”

“I’ve been a business owner, I’m a mother and a grandmother and I know what challenges people are facing. Our people deserve a better brand of representative and I’m determined to give this area an MLA it can be proud of.”
Voters are due to go to the polls across Northern Ireland on May 5.
