Derek greeting the large attendance at his recent campaign launch

I am very grateful to all who attended, and to all who sent messages of good wishes to my 2009 Local Elections Campaign Launch held in the Spa Hotel in Lucan last week. Having served as your Local Councillor for Lucan and Palmerstown for the past 10 years, and having also worked in community development with special emphasis on the voluntary sector for the last 30 years, I am now looking forward to this local elections campaign.

I am asking the people of Lucan and Palmerstown to give me their No. 1 Vote so that I can continue my work in the community. Working as a full-time Councillor, I also appreciate any offer of time you can give me to help me in this Local Election Campaign.

In this regard please email me at info@derekkeating.net or text/phone me at 087 285 7435. Your support will be of great assistance to me in continuing my work serving you and your family.
Kind regards for now,
Derek.

Welcome!
