As a candidate, I bring over 35 years of committed community engagement and leadership experience. I have been a member of various committees focused on the delivery of many projects, not only in Kells but also in the surrounding villages, addressing identified community needs.
I also serve as a committee member in our GAA club, coach underage handball, and played a founding role in establishing our local Ladies' football club and community play & recreation area. I have always been a strong advocate of sport and amenities that cater for both boys and girls of all ages.
My involvement in the design, planning, fundraising and completion of these local initiatives demonstrates my ability and hunger to deliver for our community.
