Roscrea businesses get a helping hand for Christmas

The Thurles Templemore Municipal District has agreed to provide funding from its General Municipal Allocation to help fund the festive decorations which play a huge role in getting people into the town centre and shopping locally.

Monies will also be provided for a number of other communities that requested aid including Borrisoleigh, Littleton, Moyne, Clonakenny, Clonmore and Holycross.

Roscrea Fianna Fail Councillor Michael Smith is delighted that the authority has taken this step.
