Date: 12th February
Location: Corrin Event Centre, Fermoy, Co Cork
Tidier Towns – The Way Forward is an exciting conference event brought to you by Avondhu Blackwater Partnership, a Local Development Company delivering sustainable Community and Economic development for rural North Cork. Since 1995, Avondhu Blackwater Partnership has generated €40 million for the local economy via its EU- and Exchequer-funded programmes.
The aim of the conference is to motivate community groups around the country to improve their areas. It is hoped that the conference will inspire and invigorate the public, encouraging their involvement in the planning and aesthetics of their local community.
This is of particular importance given the changing landscape of local government in Ireland today – driving forces at local level have never been more essential. This is a time for communities to pull together and take pride in their areas.
Speaking at the conference will be Ms Alison Harvey, Mr Henk van der Kamp, Mr Simon Wall and Mr Diarmuid Gavin. As well as speaking individually throughout the day, these inspirational guests will come together to close out the event with a panel talk.

A wide variety of stallholders will be in attendance at the conference.
Tidier Towns – The Way Forward is the culmination of ‘Village Image’, a three-year, transnational, Rural Development Programme project undertaken by Avondhu Blackwater Partnership, Fermoy, and Noardwest Fryslan, their European partner company in Friesland, the Netherlands.
Attendance at the conference, lunch and refreshments are entirely free of charge.
