• CCJ Volunteer Coordinator

  • Jun 2014 - Present

  I have been employed by V-SAC since June 2014 and since then I have successfully managed the core service in the Criminal Courts of Justice, Dublin, where I am permanently based. I oversee the day to day running of the service in the CCJ, the busiest court in the country, where there are twenty-two courtrooms including the Dublin District courts, Dublin Circuit courts, Central Criminal courts, Court of Appeal and the Special Criminal Courts. I manage the court accompaniment volunteers daily and provide ongoing support and information to them as needed. I also give support victims of all types of crime, their families and prosecution witnesses while attending court. I provide them access to the victim support suite and I am always available to answer any questions they may have and explain the court process to them. I work very closely with our stakeholders; I have built up strong working relationships over the years and create awareness of V-SAC at every opportunity. I regularly give presentations and tours of the victim support area in the CCJ to several different stakeholder groups. I facilitate other support organisations by managing the victim support area, coordinating the rooms and ensuring that everyone has access to support. I record accurate statistics and volunteer data daily for V-SAC’s service in the CCJ and report to the General Manager on a monthly basis. In 2018, I was proud to win the Manager of the Year award at the Volunteer Ireland Awards. Show less
