Lonergan plea for men to become role models
John Lonergan, who spent 42 years in the prison service — 24 of those as the most senior prison officer in the country — will issue his call during a keynote address to a major national volunteering conference in Cork today organised by Foróige, Ireland’s leading youth organisation.
The social justice campaigner said he has seen a trend emerge in recent years which has seen more women than men get involved in youth development.
