Congratulations to Paula Boyle from Moneymore - our latest Drogheda Tidy Towns Community Award winner.Every few months, Drogheda Tidy Towns recognises a local resident or group who goes above and beyond to keep their area clean, welcoming and full of community spirit. This quarter, Paula stood out for the huge difference she has made in Moneymore.What began as a small clean up for her has grew into a full community effort. Paula has encouraged neighbours, involved the kids, and worked with Connect FRC to brighten neglected spaces and build pride across the estate. The result has been a visible transformation of so many areas in the estate and a much renewed sense of pride of place.Paula has helped organise a major clean up day, supported new mural projects, and even raised over €3,000 for bereavement supports, all while bringing people together to improve their estate and strengthen community bonds.Paula embodies the spirit of these awards: practical action, kindness, and a determination to make her community better. Well done Paula, and thank you for everything you’re doing for Moneymore and Drogheda.#DroghedaTidyTowns #CommunitySpirit #Moneymore #TidyTownsAward #PrideOfPlace #CommunityHeroes #ConnectFamilyResourceCentre #Drogheda ...

🌍💚 What a wonderful way to recognise World Cleanup Day in Drogheda! 💚🌍We in Drogheda Tidy Towns were delighted to support the great work of Ann McVeigh and the Festival of Ideas team today as part of World Cleanup Day 2026.A huge thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who came out in advance of today’s “Climb to the top of St Laurence’s Gate” event and worked hard cleaning up Laurence Street and the surrounding areas. 👏🧤A special mention must go to the super job the team did removing litter and weeds from Keyser’s Lane / Highlanes Steps. It really looks great now! 🌿✨ It would be fantastic if we could keep it looking this way. In fact, to do so would not need a huge amount of work. Perhaps some might like to adopt the lane and give it the care it needs. We at Drogheda Tidy Towns will help , just message or email if you interested. Following the cleanup, we had the wonderful experience to Climb to the top of St Laurence’s Gate as part of Festival of Ideas. 🏰 The views over Drogheda were simply spectacular. Looking out across the town really gives you a sense of the scale of Drogheda and its remarkable panoramic setting. A big thank you to the Festival of Ideas team for organising such an enjoyable event,#DroghedaTidyTowns #WorldCleanupDay2026 #FestivalOfIdeas #ClimbTheGate #Drogheda #Highlanessteps #LaurenceStreet #CommunitySpirit #CleanerDrogheda #KeepDroghedaClean ...
