With no discernable talent whatsoever, William was luckily in possession of a sharp tie, slicked back hair and firm handshake, so was a natural choice to be Fundraising Director for the festival. His background includes setting up a non-for-profit called NGen Ireland and researching identity within the Irish Diaspora. He is currently raising funds in the more traditional manner but is considering availing of Colms’ hammer should time start to run out.
