Miltown Malbay has been named one of the principal winners in this year’s cross border Pride of Place Competition.
The ceremony took place in Derry on Saturday night, and the award for Miltown Malbay is Clare’s first success in the competition since the Clare Crusaders Children’s Clinic received an award in 2011.
Pride of Place, which is run by Co-operation Ireland in conjunction with local authorities North and South recognises and celebrates the vital contributions that community partnerships make to society.
Miltown Malbay beat off stiff competition from all over the country to be crowned overall winners of Population Category 3 and were presented with a Crystal Award and a cheque for 1,000 euro
