Limerick communities urged to ‘think green’ in going for gold bid
A PUSH to compete for Limerick’s most environmentally-friendly area has presented itself again this year with the Limerick Going For Gold, 2023 initiative.
Last year, Adare struck gold in the Tidy Towns category, while a total of €60,000 of prize funding was set aside with the aim to make Limerick a cleaner place to live, socialise and work.
The Limerick public, residents associations, and Tidy Towns groups are encouraged to apply and take part in Going for Gold 2023.
Limerick City and County Council said: “This is a unique collaborative campaign with two elements to it, that include an Environment Improvement Grant and the competition.
“Limerick Going for Gold 2023 Environment Improvement Grant is now open for applications - once a group applies for funding, they are automatically included in the Going for Gold Competition. The 2023 competition element of Going for Gold will be launched later in the year.”
The categories this year are: Reuse Award, Endeavour Award, Tidy Towns category, Limerick Bee Friendly in Bloom, Residential Areas category and the Most Beautiful Front Garden Category.
