A group made up of local business owners there has been established, calling for more to be done to promote the town and ensure a viable future for it going forward.

Now, they’re calling for more to be done both at a local and a national level to give them a leg up and help them put their best foot forward.

Despite being located on Clare’s coastline, they say Miltown struggles to attract the same number of visitors as some other areas – except during this week’s annual Willie Clancy Summer School.
