The award is in recognition of a person who has contributed significantly to the life of Cashel during 2020.

The Lions have been presenting the award since 1987.

Speaking to Tipp Today, Mark explained how the Many Faces of Cashel project began.

“It would have started with my interest in portrait photography – from being around the streets of Cashel with so many great characters. And maybe it’s a little bit of a disservice to call them characters – just wonderful people.”

“I just said they’d make wonderful subjects for photography and I started going around photographing them and I suppose from that I went back and started interviewing them as I thought it would be a great idea for a book.”
