Cultur
Cultúr
Cultúr is a community organisation that works with migrants, asylum seekers and refugees promoting equal rights and opportunities to develop an intercultural County Meath. As a photographer, I make sure I’m there to document meetings, debates and launches of new projects. Most of my work helps Cultur with the Press. Some of my work has been published in locall newspapers, flyers and brochures.
Claremont
Claremont Stadium
When I joined Claremont Stadium it was in need of a total makeover. After doing extensive work on the building I was called to take photographs of their facilities. I’m so proud to see the place is currently offering training courses, english classes and meetings. Claremont Stadium is a local sporting, community and education centre, managed by volunteers and Parkvilla Football Club. The fantastic facilities include an Olympic standard 8 lane, 400m Tartan Athleticx Track and Field Stadium, Soccer Grounds, Multi Acivity Sports Hall wihich caters for Badminton, Soccer, Basketball, Olympic Handball and more.
In December 2010, I sponsored a local school based in Navan Scoil Naomh Eoin. The school was due to move to new premises by January, but needed more funding to complete. The Parents Association contacted me and explain their idea to fundraise more money towards the school. I offered to make monthly themed calendars for sale. The school raised over €3.000 and now has relocated to a beautiful, brand new buidling!!
