Visit from Ard Cath Tidy Towns

On Saturday 24 January 2026 we were delighted to welcome visitors from Ardcath Tidy Towns to Dromiskin. Despite the inclement weather, we had a most pleasant exchange of ideas with discussions on best practice and various projects carried out in both communities.

After some refreshments in the local school, kindly made available by Principal, Ms. Aoibheann Lynch, we set off on a quick tour of the village. This took in Ginnety’s Pond nature park, Súil na Manach, the Heritage Park and finished up with a visit to the graveyard.

It was great to swap stories and experiences with a fellow Tidy Towns group and we wish

Ardcath TT every success in 2026 and future years.

Volunteer Appreciation Night

On the evening of Friday 23 January 2026, a crowd of over 40 Dromiskin Tidy Towns

volunteers gathered in the superbly appointed Joes clubrooms. Their efforts throughout the year were acknowledged in whatever capacity they served - big or small. Because of their

contributions whether that be at Committee level, work sessions, litterpicks, beach cleans, work on the website, newsletters and social media or helping with fundraising - Dromiskin Tidy Towns celebrated their most successful year since their foundation over 30 years ago.

Mark Dorian served up delicious and great crack was had by all over a quiet drink. Onwards and upwards for 2026!!
