Groups at all stages of their Tidy Towns journey, whether they are new to the competition or seasoned competitors, are encouraged to attend.

Mayor of Limerick City and County, Cllr Daniel Butler said: “Communities have shown such resilience and strength throughout the restrictions that now is their time to shine. Throughout lockdown, Tidy Towns volunteers continued to work hard in their communities and they must be commended for this.

“It’s great for Limerick’s Tidy Towns groups to be able to network at an in-person event. Tidy Towns volunteers continue to make an enormous contribution to civic life in Limerick and the seminar is just one way that the Council can support them with their volunteer work. I am looking forward to meeting them and welcoming our guest speakers to Limerick.”
