I am delighted to have been accepted onto the 2025/26 UEFA Pro Licence with the Irish Football Association.
A massive thank you to the Association who has a huge reputation of supporting some of the world’s elite and I can’t wait to give as much energy to the course.

1 in 5 of us have experienced suicidal thoughts, but suicide can be prevented. We can all play a part by looking out for each other.
As charity of the year for the TCS @LondonMarathon, we’re tackling stigma around suicide. We believe in tomorrow, and together we can save lives.

A general election is on the horizon. Young people’s mental health is in a state of emergency - it’s time to address the root causes and radically improve support services. Politicians need to step up and do more for young people.
ALT Mental health must be at the top of the political agenda this year.

In 1996, an unidentified 8-year-old boy slipped away from his mother, climbed over a barrier, and fell into the Gorilla Enclosure.
Due to the 20 ft fall, the boy broke his hand and suffered a deep laceration to his face. Seven gorillas inhabited the enclosure. Gorillas are known to be fiercely territorial animals.
They will fight to the death to defend their families. However, one of the gorillas, called Binti Jua, meaning “daughter of sunshine” went over to the boy and cradled him in her arms, all while her own young child was on her back.
She then went over to the edge of the enclosure and waited for the zookeepers to come and collect the child.
Binti handed the child over peacefully before returning to the rest of the gorillas. Binti received worldwide praise and received regular treats for the next few weeks.
The boy and the mother have never been identified, but the boy did stay in a hospital for 4 days.
Animal behavioral experts claim Binti used her maternal instincts to look after the child. This may have been influenced by the fact that she had her own baby Gorilla with her at the time.
