Donabate wins two Cleaner Community awards




Donabate gained two prestigious titles in the Fingal County Council Cleaner Communities awards which were announced in October.

Jane Farrell, the Square, Donabate made our community proud by winning the title of ‘Best Presented Front Garden’ in the Balbriggan/Swords category which also covers the Donabate-Portrane peninsula.

Jane was also the winner of the local Tidy Towns best front garden in 2009, so we are delighted that she is flying the flag for Donabate.

In addition, Donabate Portrane Community and Leisure centre has won the “Best Presented Community Centre” category in Fingal.

Even with all of the disruption that building work can bring and the extra temporary prefabs that have had to be installed for the Donabate Community College it is great to see that the centre can still come up trumps in the awards.

Congratulations to Jacinta Lowndes and all of the hard working team at the centre.
