LatestJim Lillis – Hurler, hillwalker, volunteer and Coolock changemaker
After serving for over 20 years as a voluntary board member and chairperson of Speedpak Group in Coolock, Dublin, Jim Lillis stepped down in August. We met him in Speedpak's HQ, where staff were busy packing boxes and making rosettes, to interview him for our Changing Ireland Together Podcast. This is also the place where Changing Ireland is packed for distribution. Originally from Co. Clare, Jim's days of hurling, squash and hillwalking have stood to him as he’s fit and sprightly at 80.
