Question time
Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?

I get things done. I have co-founded & voluntarily manage Clare Crusaders Clinic for 8 years where over 400 children in Clare receive free therapy.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

My main priority is to make sure we have a fit for purpose health care service that we can all be proud of.

What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?

I would like to get a properly funded therapy based service for children with special needs and disabilities located in Co Clare.
