Message from the Committee:

In Greystones Tidy Towns, it is our mission to make Greystones the “most liveable community” not only for humans but for our 4-legged, no-legged, and winged residents.  To achieve this, we have endeavoured for the past number of years to plant only biodiversity-friendly plants and be as inclusive as possible as can be seen from our major projects.

We have had a big year in Greystones Tidy Towns and have a terrific bunch of volunteers from all corners of the world. Our organisation is a great way to meet people and the post-volunteering cup of coffee is always a great bonding session.

We want to increase the awareness of the Tidy Town initiatives by using this website to keep community members up to date about our activities and hope to grow our membership further. With everyone involved we can make a difference to the local environment and make Greystones the best place to live, work & play for both humans and non-humans.

Greystones Tidy Towns is proud to play its part, along with the many other local organisations which make such a great contribution to the town’s high quality of life. Tidy Towns is a year-round effort on all our parts to keep our town looking it’s best.

We believe in supporting initiatives in climate action, biodiversity, sustainability, heritage, and environmental education. We are very proud of our Junior Tidy Towns programme that offers support to all of the area primary schools as well as our regular work with secondary schools, including TY projects.

We have also give our support as a community educator and advocate for sustainability, biodiversity, climate action, preservation of local heritage, and “smart cities”. Join us if you want to help make a difference and an impact in this wonderful community.
