BALLYCANEW TIDY TOWNS

Ballycanew Tidy Towns understands, that attending meetings or joining committees is not everyones cup of tea but for ballycanew tidy towns to continue working in and improving the village we need the support and help of residents, businesses, clubs and other community groups. Remember it is your village too and we need everyone to take pride in it!

If you can spare just one hour per week and you can sweep, paint, weed, have an interest in flowers and shrubs, have an artistic flair, interest in woodwork and Upcycling, DIY or can help with litter picking , well then you are an ideal candidate for our group.

If you haven’t an hour a week to spare then you could consider adopting a spot - look after a flower planter or flowerbed, keep an area near your home litter free, paint a wall or gate. It’s up to you!

Please help us and get involved. Without your help and support Ballycanew Tidy Towns will not exist.
