Buncrana competes on national stage 17.07.07

A Buncrana centre for people with disabilities has been chosen with four other nominees to represent Donegal in the nationwide Pride of Place Awards 2007.
Cashel na Cor Disability Association Ltd., which helps people with intellectual disabilities have joined Carrigart Development Association; Castlefin Partnership Initiative Ltd; Letterkenny Community Development Project and the Finn Valley Athletic Centre to battle it out on the national platform.
Donegal County Council senior executive officer Garry Martin commended the groups for the work they had done in their respective communities:
“The focus is on people to shape, change and enjoy all that is good about their area. This competition is unique in that it recognises and rewards people for their contribution to their local area,” he said.
County manager Michael McLoone said the groups chosen to represent the county on the national stage were of great importance to their local communities.
“This award is about people, who create social networks that focus on social aspects of the environment,” he said.
