Thomas Moloney is an area manager with Foróige in Cork, overseeing youth services across the city and county. That experience was the beginning of my youth work journey and it set me on the path I’m still on today. The project has received significant support from Cork City Council, Cork ETB and the Department of Justice. Foróige is also working closely with Cork City Council on several advocacy projects including the Cork Docklands development. For me, the most rewarding part of the job is seeing the real difference that youth work can make on the ground.
