Champions of Cork City’s poor and homeless among those honoured at civic awards
The head of the Irish Naval Service also accepted one of Lord Mayor Cllr Chris O’Leary’s six civic awards on behalf of the navy in recognition of its role in the Mediterranean humanitarian missions.
Mr O’Leary said all six nominees had shown great leadership and are role models worthy of their awards. He said he was particularly pleased to honour three people who selflessly are on the frontline in fighting homelessness and poverty.
