Why Ciarán?

For a kinder, fairer and more sustainable future.

If elected, I’ll fight for what we need to build a community that works for all,

including:

Affordable homes and rents
Effective public transport & active travel
Expansion of community facilities
Accessible & affordable childcare
Better social care and disability supports that match individual needs

I’m ready to provide a fresh and progressive perspective for a new generation in the Dáil, and advocate for our interests.

My Work

I work as a solicitor specialising in employment law. I spend my free time volunteering in my community:

Through FLAC (Free Legal Advice Centres) I provide advice to many charities and individuals, and provide employment law training for volunteer advisors

I am Chairperson of the Board of Management of Ballyroan BNS and involvement in my secondary school past pupils’ union

I play music (euphonium!) with the Rathfarnham Concert Band and I am currently serving as the Band’s Chairperson
I am active in the South Dublin Cycling Campaign

I’m a founding director of the local charity Calcutta Connect, which supports education in underprivileged communities in India

I also organise the Law Society’s annual “Calcutta Run” for the Simon Community and Hope Foundation, raising €300,000 in 2023 alone.

I want the council to get back to basics and do the simple things right - ensuring safe footpaths, roads, cycle paths, and clean, green communities.

I want to build on my track record of voluntary work by becoming a full-time representative of communities in Templeogue, Rathfarnham and Greenhills. I want to help build a kinder, fairer and more sustainable future for all in our area.

To do this I need your vote so please consider me for your No. 1 on 7th May. Thank you!
