IRD Duhallow’s “A Day of the Regions” is a vibrant initiative that celebrates the essence of life in Duhallow. First introduced in 2012 this initiative encourages both locals and visitors to engage with the community and explore the wide range of amenities, clubs, activities and resources available in the area. These events showcase the best of Duhallow’s culture, sport, tradition, and community spirit. They provide a fantastic opportunity for people to discover and participate in local activities, making it an inclusive celebration for all ages. The programme is open to support events across the region for the rest of the year. For more information or to organize an event contact helen.osullivan@irdduhallow.com
