This year we are attempting to get a tree in the Mall and we are extending the current lighting scheme. In total this is going to cost in the region of £30,000. We are getting a £10,000 grant from the UDC but we have to raise the surplus. Our collectors will be calling shortly and once again we are running the confined draw with prizes worth £3,000. Please support this venture.

On October 31st Mr. Tom Clarke, National President, Simon Nugent & Dara Calleary from CCI met with our officer board. This was one of a number of meetings held with key chambers around the country.
