The Board
Public Achievement is governed by a Board of volunteers who between them have a breadth of expertise, vision and experience. The Board includes two members who are participants in our projects, and all have experience of youth work in a wide range of settings. We endeavour at all times to maintain a balance in terms of gender, age, community background and experience.
Professor Tony Gallagher (Chairperson) | Tony is Professor of Education at Queen's University, Belfast, where he is also head of the Graduate School of Education. Much of his research looks at diversity and equality in education, citizenship education and integrated education.
|
Lisa Hall | Lisa, originally from the US, works as a trainer and consultant, particularly around issues of diversity and community relations. She joined the Board in 2005 after hearing the Director give a talk about our work.
|
Lowry Grant | Lowry is the CEO of an accountancy business, and teaches at the University of Ulster. He has been involved in youth work in communities in and around Belfast for over 25 years.
|
| Ellen Diver | Ellen is from Derry, and is a former member of the Shadow Youth Council at Derry City Council. She is the youngest member of the Board, and was involved in previous Public Achievement projects including our Talking Citizenship event on participation and the international Summer Youth Camp in 2005 at Corrymeela. Ellen is also an active member of the WIMPS team. She is a student at Queen's University. |
| John Hanna | John is from Enniskillen. He works as a patent atorney, and is also a very active Public Achievement coach and volunteer with several youth and community projects. |
