Ard-na-Greine Residents association has been in existence almost since the estate was built back in 1973. It is a vibrant collection of neighbours with a strong commitment to looking after the environment in positive and practical ways. There are regular formal committee meetings but the emphasis tends to be less on words than actions that will improve the neighbourhood.
The motto is "think globally, act locally" and if there is graffiti to be dealt with, litter to be cleared or green areas to be looked after then members of the Association are empowered to take action as individuals or as groups of individuals. The underlying belief is that if the area looks cared for it will be safer as well as more beautiful. Also, it's a way of getting to know your neighbours.
This blog focuses on the history of Ard-na-Gréine and how it has changed over the years.
