The Board and staff of Avondhu Blackwater Partnership this week extended hearty congratulations to all the local communities who competed in this years National Tidy Towns.

“Enormous work has gone into making each town and village as beautiful as possible and the results were revealed last week,” Alan Buckley of ABP said.

ABP chairman Sean Hegarty commented: “We have built great relationships with the towns and villages in North Cork and we have been privileged to play our own small part over the years through various projects we were able to grant aid. It is very satisfying for all of us here to see the work put in, bearing fruit. Congratulations to all concerned.”
