Elena Secas

Why I got involved in politics

I entered politics so that I could in some way contribute to making Limerick a better place to live, work and raise a family in. I don't always have all the answers, but I am working very hard and am trying my very best to get things done, to improve the quality of life in our community, in our city.

I feel strongly about issues that matter to us all and I want to work with you to address those issues.

My core policy is to provide our Community with a way to send our message from the ground directly into the Council Chamber, and to bring to the table a sense of priorities, that values communities and families.

My priorities

My top priority is to represent the people in my electoral area and do my best to deliver at local level for the whole community.

I am very passionate and committed to listening to the real needs and concerns people might have, and to engaging with the local people to promote a safer and better life and future for our community.

I have an open door policy and if I can help in any way, I will - please do not hesitate to contact me.

Always working with you for the betterment of our community.
