The Chairperson of Keep Kilkenny Beautiful (KKB), Cllr Maria Dollard, has hailed the voluntary contribution of everyone involved as the county celebrates securing second place out of 40 towns and cities surveyed by the Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL).
The accolade means Kilkenny City has been rated as ‘Cleaner than European Norms’.
"On behalf of the committee and volunteers of Keep Kilkenny Beautiful, I want to welcome our ranking," Cllr Dollard said.

"Our volunteers are out fortnightly all year round and litter picking is a big part of our annual programme of activities. We work closely with Kilkenny County Council to support their work and contribute to maintaining Kilkenny’s reputation as the best place to live, work and visit," she added.
"It took a whole community of people to achieve this status and I want to thank everyone who has contributed through their business, jobs or as volunteers for achieving this great result."
