OUR TEMPLEMORE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION

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 SUSTAINABLE ENERGY GROUP

An old Greek proverb states that “Society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.”With the current hikes in fossil fuel prices more and more of us are talking about finding sustainable energy choices for our homes and businesses. Many challenges to this action exist .. Who does what and why? What benefit will it have for me? How much will it cost? Is it possible that some people will invest more and benefit less? Perhaps, but that does not have to stop us in our endeavours.
