Tipperary Town Revitalisation Heritage Group in collaboration with The Museum of Childhood Ireland and the CTCHC & The Heritage Council (Collaborative town centre heath check) programme has been awarded County Winner in the Heritage category in the 2023 The National Lottery Good Causes Awards.
Financial support from the National Lottery Good Causes (to the Heritage Council) enabled this project to run a series of sustainable heritage workshops, encouraging young people to engage with their built environment and inspiring them to reimagine a future for themselves and their town. This community project also highlighted the ability of a towns Architectural Conservation Area to capture a place’s distinctive special quality and allowed us the opportunity to produce a film documenting the towns rich Glove Industry.
The project now goes forward to the next round of judging and we are excited to see what happens next.
Thank you to National Lottery Good Causes for their support.
Well done to Mary Alice O’Connor, Cllr Annemarie Ryan, Majella McAllister (MOCI) and Alison Harvey (Heritage Council CTCHC) and everyone (young and old) involved in this wonderful community project.
