An event was held in Dublin’s Mansion House last week to remember Trevor O’Neill, the IMPACT member and Dublin City Council employee who was shot dead while on holiday with his partner and three children in Majorca in August 2016. It was a case of mistaken identity.

The memorial event was attended by Trevor’s partner Suzanne and other family members, colleagues from IMPACT’s Municipal Employees division, Dublin’s lord mayor, and senior officials from Dublin City Council. IMPACT general secretary Shay Cody was also there.

Trevor joined IMPACT’s Municipal Employees’ branch in1999 when he started work with the drainage division of Dublin City Council. He worked in various sections, but spent the majority of his years working with the Tide Gate’s Crew out of Marrowbone Lane depot.

IMPACT’s Municipal Employees branch spearheaded efforts to raise funds for Trevor’s family following his tragic death, and the city council subsequently established a fund for the purpose.
