Strokestown Tidy Towns committee has been operating since the early 1960’s when the nationwide Tidy Towns competition was introduced.
A vibrant and active committee has been formed for 2022 onwards and are determined to increase local awareness of important national biodiversity issues, introduce new ways for our community to come together and develop existing town amenities for the enjoyment of residents and visitors. As a new committee we are working hard to develop strong links with all bodies offering Amenity Grants and will use all monies to finance a clearly-defined range of innovative actions aimed to benefit the whole of Strokestown. We are pleased to be able to benefit from the TUS and CE schemes and are keen to expand the workforce available under these auspices. A huge THANK YOU to all who give their time to support us and our community. If you'd like be part of our interesting and fun future contact us, either by email or via our popular Facebook page. 2022 Committee CHAIR: Jonathan Cassidy SECRETARY: Martina O'Connor TREASURER: Mark Chilvers Vertical Divider
