SO NO EXCUSES….

🐕 We’re still finding bagged dog poo discarded in the landscaped areas, in planters, left on top of walls and just dropped on the footpaths. It’s not our responsibility to pick up after your dog 🐶💩 There’s just no excuse!

🤔Did you know you don’t need to find a dedicated dog waste bin - bagged dog waste can go in any public litter bin! Leaving dog mess behind isn’t an option, so if the nearest dog bin is full or too far away, just use a general litter bin or bring it home and dispose in your own household waste bin.

Please place your chewing gum in bins, not only is it unsightly, chewing gum which contains xylitol can poison our furry friends and can also cause harm to our birds. Please be responsible and help us all keep our county clean. Thank you!

DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO REVEAL THE WINNERS OF THE RECENT Enniscorthy Tidy Towns SECONDARY SCHOOLS PHOTO COMPETITION...

Enniscorthy Tidy Towns has just released the list of winners of their annual secondary schools photograph competition. The group is using the winning photographs in their 2025 tidy towns competition application form, with the winning photo proudly displayed on the cover page.

Judging the photos was extremely tough owing to the quality and creativity of the photographs submitted.

The winner of the competition is Siún Ryan, a student at Coláiste Bríde Secondary School. Her scenic photo of the River Slaney and the historic St. Senan’s Hospital really stood out. The clouds, blue sky and reflective surface were beautifully captured.

A close runner-up is Jessica Mitten, another student at Coláiste Bríde Secondary School. Jessica captured an amazingly coloured sky above Enniscorthy Community Allotments. The colours, clouds and ambience are striking.

Joint third went to Luke Ryan (Enniscorthy CBS) and Radek Bartnik. Luke managed to capture a perfectly timed shot of the Rosslare – Dublin train travelling over the historic railway bridge. Radek took a wonderfully angled photograph of tall pine trees reaching upwards into the sky, capturing nature at its very finest. Well done to both.

Enniscorthy Tidy Towns would like to sincerely thank all entrants.

A special thanks to Grants Pharmacy Enniscorthy who sponsored a prize.

The committee were thrilled to send out vouchers for Grants and MySport Enniscorthy to the winners.

If your business is interested in making a monetary or equipment donation to Enniscorthy Tidy Towns, please contact the group.

Details of the 2026 photo competition will be announced early next year.
