Love Where You Live over for another year, Leitrim PPN thoroughly enjoyed visiting the many groups doing fantastic work around Leitrim. ‘When out judging there was a feeling of involvement in and concern for one’s local community as well as a willingness and desire to participate in activities that promote the community and involve everyone.”

A Public Participation Network (PPN) is a network that allows local authorities to connect with community groups around the country. gov.ie – Public Participation Networks.
