As part of the Terenure2030 initiative, the Clean Up & Green Up Terenure team are happy to announce a spring clean up in Terenure village on 

Saturday 5th April between 10am and 3pm.

We will be donning our gloves and bibs to clean up the village on the day. We also plan to overhaul the garden at Evergreen Hall to provide a colourful summer garden for our local Evergreen Club members.

If you are interested in digging, weeding, sweeping, scrubbing or picking up litter on behalf of your community please ear mark this day in your diary and donate a few hours between 10am and 3pm for this great community event. We would appreciate any time you can provide on the day.

Meeting Point: Car Park on Terenure Road North at 10am.  Bring along your gloves and your enthusiasm.
