Kildare County Council is inviting expressions of interest from local community groups who wish to be nominated for the 2025, IBP National Pride of Place Competition, in association with Co-Operation Ireland.

Pride of Place is an annual all-island competition run in conjunction with local authorities.  It aims to recognise improvements made by local communities to create civic pride in their area. The competition celebrates the efforts and endeavours of communities throughout Ireland, focusing on people coming together to shape, change and improve the daily lives of people in their communities.

Pride of Place acknowledges local communities working together to enhance amenities, activities, facilities, and the character of their area in a way that generates awareness, respect, and inclusion for every sector in their community. Therefore, it is important in your submission to show how you take a whole-of-community approach to the development of your local area.
