“I am honoured to be here this evening to present all the TidyTowns volunteers from the eight counties in the North-West and West region with their well-earned prizes from the 2025 competition. I had the pleasure of meeting many of you at the National Awards ceremony last October. There is no doubt that the great work undertaken by TidyTowns groups makes our towns and villages better places to live, work, visit and invest,” said Minister Calleary.
“In recent years, over 30,000 individuals have volunteered with TidyTowns groups. I have the greatest respect for the civic pride TidyTowns volunteers have demonstrated in such a selfless manner over the 68 years the competition has been running,” he added.
