Dunfanaghy
Dunfanaghy has a very active and committed Tidy Towns group. We have approximately 30 people who are members of Tidy Towns and more who are happy to support us, participating in Tidy Towns activities and contributing financially to the work that we carry out. Not bad for a small village with less than 300 permanent residents!
Our remit is to:
1 Involve the local community in Tidy Towns activities
2 Improve the streetscape and built environment of the village
3 Maintain and develop the landscape and green areas of the village
4 Raise awareness of the natural environment and carry out activities to enhance the biodiversity of the
area
5 Encourage everyone to live in more sustainable ways with a view to eliminating waste in the key areas
of resources, energy and water
6 Keep the village clean and tidy.
Our recent projects include:
* Upgrade and maintenance of the Village Green.
* The construction and installation of ‘village stones’ at the two main entrances to the village.
* We organised funding and re-instated the lamp on the plinth in the Market Square.
* The development of a Heritage Trail which includes ten points of interest around the village and local
area. The Heritage Trail includes an audio app. which can be downloaded on to a mobile phone.
* Regular maintenance of village flower beds and keeping the village litter free.
