PRIDE OF PLACE
The award ceremony for Pride of Place, the all-Ireland competition celebrates the very best of community activism, took place in Cork recently.
Michael Sweeney from Wexford County Council wrote ‘I shared your disappointment that Craanford did not get the official recognition of your tremendous selfless community activism at the awards ceremony on Saturday night in Cork, however I hope you enjoyed the opportunity to showcase the marvellous work being carried out on an on-going basis within Craanford and its surrounds, and that it gave the community an opportunity to reflex on, and celebrate all that you have achieved thus far’.
Craanford congratulates Bunclody on achieving all-Ireland success in their category.
