See what your support has already achieved for us all

A new playground for the parish was the priority for many residents when the present council was formed. The dream became a reality in 2019 when the new playground was opened. Thousands of children have enjoyed the delights, and benefits, of the playground since then.

Sensory garden

We have developed a sensory garden for all ages in the green area behind the credit union. The sensory garden will provide experiences to stimulate all the senses. The garden includes a bamboo walk, benches, a water feature, plants especially chosen to stimulate the senses, bug hotel, a beech hedge and sensory walls. A tarmac walkway brings you around the garden.

Linked walkway

Walking and physical activity is an important aspect of well-being. The community council has created a loop walk around the playground and sensory garden. This short walk is suitable for all ages and is wheelchair accessible.

 

The community centre

The community centre was opened in 1986. Its refurbishment and modernisation was begun in 2019 and we expect to reopen the centre in autumn 2021. The following work has been carried out: roof completely renovated, ladies & gents toilets refurbished, complete electrical rewiring, new disability toilet installed, new gas-fired central heating system, fire safety requirements, modern kitchen installed, new insulation installed, new stage lighting and sound system, ceilings replaced & new ceiling access for lighting control. It will be very important that we have a constant source of funding in order to maintain the centre at a very high standard in the future.

Plans for the future

We outlined a 10 year development plan for our community in the parish magazine ‘grean 2020’. We have also published a tourism proposal. Pallasgreen Templebraden Community Council are committed to the realisation of every single action in these documents.

We understand the financial position for many of our families and hope that the weekly option of €2 per line will allow everybody to contribute.

If you can contribute 3 lines for €5 it would be hugely appreciated.

Thank you for your support and the best of luck in the weekly draw.
