Mark has been an active member in various community groups and voluntary work for several years. He was a founding member and is still a volunteer leader for Coolaney Foróige club.

He currently sits on the board of directors for Coolaney Development Company, the Sligo Travellers Support Group, and is actively involved with the Sligo Foróige District Council. He is passionate about helping to create a healthy and inclusive society where all can thrive. Being involved in advocacy and family support work has given him a deep understanding of the issues facing community groups.

Having achieved a degree in Health and Disability through St. Angela’s College in Sligo, he recently completed a Master’s in Leadership and Management in the Community and Public Sector. That’s when he joined the PPN secretariat to gain more knowledge and understanding of the structure, and from that, pass on the information to the different groups involved in the Sligo area to make a stronger network.
