The TCDA is a community group founded to promote, support and seek funding for local community projects. The Association was set up in 2016 following two well attended public meetings where people expressed an interest in volunteering as part of a group to fill the vacuum created following the dissolution of Templemore Town Council in 2014.
Our Action Plan
The TCDA in consultation with the Citizens of Templemore have created a 5 year plan which will further assist and guide the community over the next 5 years in developing the town and enhancing it as an attractive place to visit, work, live and do business in.
The primary focus of the plan is to provide a list of achievable actions which will serve to enhance and improve the town of Templemore and in the process contribute to the social cohesion, spirit and economic well-being of the community.
