Fourth Years pictured today completing the Skibbereen Town Centre First Survey.
Under the Town Centre First Policy initiative, Skibbereen town has been identified as a “pathfinder” town and funding has been granted to Cork County Council for the development of a regeneration plan for the town.
The aim of the Town Centre First Policy is to create town centres that function as viable, vibrant and attractive locations for people to live, work, and visit, while also functioning as the service, social, cultural and recreational hub for the local community.
Students today were given an opportunity to reflect on living in Skibbereen and to give their views by completing the survey.
We are looking forward to the next stage of this process.
Pictured also is our Principal Mr. Anton O’Mahony and Ms. Órla O’Sullivan discussing the initiative.
