In Memoriam: Chris Oakes

It is with great sadness that we regret to advise that the death has occurred of Chris Oakes, former Chair, Company Secretary and long-serving Board member of Tuath Housing. Chris gave two decades of loyal service to Tuath, joining the Board in 2003 and retiring in 2023. He was Chair of the Board from 2006 to 2010 and served as Company Secretary from 2016 to 2019.

Chris was a wonderful ambassador and true champion for Tuath. His knowledge, expertise and leadership had a hugely positive impact on the organisation. We are truly grateful for his dedication and the outstanding contribution Chris made to Tuath. He was immensely proud of Tuath’s work and how we had provided secure and affordable homes to thousands of people in housing need. Chris will be greatly missed by everyone who had the luck to know him. Everyone’s thoughts at Tuath are with his family and friends.

Rest in Peace Christopher. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
