Climate Action - Sand Art saying Emergency

I want Waterford City and County to be a place of vibrant and resilient communities, where we can live, work and build a future together.

I believe that we have to make Waterford City a driver for the entire South East, where people from North, South, East and West Waterford as well as people from the wider region can access a full range of services, from health and education to employment and entertainment.

I believe in a fair society where we work together to solve the challenges we face, while protecting our most vulnerable. I believe in a Green Society where everyone is happy, healthy and no-one is left behind.

As your local Green Party TD for Waterford City and County, I will do every thing I possibly can to realise my vision for County Waterford.

My priorities are:

  • To deliver transformative change in how we address the Climate and Biodiversity Emergency, with increased investment in active and public transport coupled with changes in how we use our land, produce our energy and heat our homes.
  • To bring life back to the heart of our urban communities, making our town centres and villages places to do business, but also to live, socialise and raise a family. To maintain the fabric of our rural communities by delivering sustainable jobs in the new Green Economy.
  • To plan properly for Waterford’s future and that of all our people, allowing our city and county to grow sustainably, and to make that growth benefit all our citizens, and not just the wealthy few.
  • To demand that key services are made available in Waterford, from 24/7 Cardiac Care to Mental Health Services in University Hospital, Waterford, to securing University status for WIT and the delivery of the North Quays Project.
