Valerie McDermott

On May 24 you have the opportunity to determine the future direction of Dun Laoghaire.

As someone born and raised in Dalkey, I want to work on your behalf in making Dun Laoghaire a better place to live, work, raise a family and grow old in.

I pledge my experience as a campaigner on issues from protecting our pitches in Clonkeen College, and opposing the over-development of Dun Laoghaire harbour, to advocating in support of Repeal the 8th and Marriage Equality.

If elected I will prioritise the sustainable redevelopment of our harbours, an increase in the policing presence on our streets and the provision of social and affordable housing for all those in need.

I believe that we as local residents deserve Councillors committed to serving our areas and who will not take your views for granted.

I ask you to give me your no 1 Vote so that I may be your voice in strengthening Dun Laoghaire and our communities.
