Issues I'm working on.
From the Dáil chamber to the doorstep — these are the areas where my office is most active for Dublin North-West.
Community.
Community is the foundation stone on which so much in our country is built. I work closely with local residents associations and community organisations in Ballymun, Finglas, Glasnevin, Santry, Beaumont and Whitehall.
Volunteers give so much to our area and I see it as an important part of my role to support them. I'm available to provide advice or information about funding opportunities or to seek answers from state bodies about developments that impact local residents.
Sport.
Championing local sports clubs and community sport facilities.
- Assisting groups to avail of the Sports Capital Grants

Health.
Fighting for more investment in health infrastructure in our area, including Cappagh Hospital, Beaumont Hospital and our primary care centres.
