Some of the Projects Completed by Birr TidyTowns
We would like to thank all our partners and sponsors: Haven (Butler’s) Pharmacy Birr – Birr Credit Union – Offaly Co. Co. – OLDC – GreenOffaly – SuperValu – Birr Christmas Market (Marian & Frank Pilkington) – Loughnane Concrete – R.J. Barber & Sons – Birr Social Club – Birr Central Tool hire – Corrib Oil – St. Brendan’s Environmental Group & Dooly’s Hotel. Over the years without their support none of these projects would have ever existed. All of the projects below are a testament to all the members of Birr TidyTowns. The amount of work involved is endless from the planning process to contacting owners of property or land proposing the potential project, getting local clubs and groups on board to carry out the projects, seeking materials and supplies all takes a considerable amount of time and effort. There is great pride in store from the start of the project, throughout and right up until the end. Both visitors and the local community benefit from all of these projects, enhancing and improving our town will always be a priority for us and we look forward to seeking many more future projects.
