Edenderry Clean Up Campaign
Have you a half hour or an hour free on Monday mornings? Please meet us in Dunnes Stores Car Park at 10am this Monday and every Monday. If you're male, female, young, old, a native of Edenderry or new to the town, please come and join us in our quest to clean up our town. EDWIB's work along with Offaly County Council, FAS, KARE and ECCC showed great promise but when work stopped during the Christmas period, the problem returned. The group want to take positive action and put a strategic plan together to include the schools, clubs, business and residents of the town. If you can help we would like to talk to you. Contact us on 085 7632672 or email at edwibs@ gmail.com
