The longest serving member of the Cork Missing Persons Search and Recovery, Dinny Kiely, has been named Cork Person of the Month for July.

Speaking about how he got involved, Mr Kiely said: "My son died tragically in Glanmire and that's nearly 18 years ago now. About a month later, a man called for me and asked me- his son was after entering the river- so I naturally went down and used what I knew about the river to help locate him."
