Pearse McCrory commended the "tremendous work" of
people in various towns, villages and rural areas
across the peninsula.
“Our mobile litter unit picked up over two tonnes of
waste over the weekend and this does not include the
waste collected in Buncrana and Carndonagh," said Mr
McCrory.
"It was great to see such strong community spirit
and the sense of pride that people have in their own
areas." |
