Dermot O’Connor – Local Organisation

I taught RE in secondary schools for 16 years and have worked in the Voluntary Sector since 1998.

I managed a homeless shelter then I was a Carers Assessment and Support Services Manager. I moved from that into Victim Support as Divisional Manager.  All of those posts were in Barrow-in-Furness.

When I moved back to Liverpool in 2009 I worked at Wigan CVS as Volunteering Development Officer and for the past 2 years I have been Support Services Manager at Alzheimer’s Society, Knowsley.

I enjoy pub quizzes and folk music (especially where it involves my children performing) real ale and history.
