Published on: 11 September 2012


Fianna Fáil TD Barry Cowen has congratulated the Offaly towns that received awards at this year’s Tidy Towns Competition.

Geashill was named the tidiest town in Offaly, while Clonbullogue was highly commended and Tubber was commended.  Clara won an Endeavour Award.

“This is a great achievement for the people of Geashill, Clonbullogue, Tubber and Clara,” said Deputy Cowen.

“The communities have put in an enormous effort at making their towns as clean, beautiful and welcoming as possible.  Each of the four Offaly towns that won awards this week have been recognised for significantly improving their surroundings. The people of Geashill should be particularly proud that they live in the tidiest town in the county.

“The Tidy Towns competition has always brought out the strong community spirit of the people of Offaly.  Families, businesses, schools and local representatives all pull together to ensure that we have a strong presence at the competition every single year. We should all be proud of Offaly’s achievements this year.”
