Limerick is 'going for gold' as Ireland’s cleanest city with the announcement of a major campaign to encourage businesses, community groups and individuals to improve their areas in a bid to make the city litter free. There were jubilant celebrations in City Hall, Limerick as the residents of Castletroy View won the top prize in the €50K Community Challenge in 2011. Limerick City Council in association with the JP McManus Charitable Foundation is asking you to play your part in maiking Limerick a better place by providing €50,000 to help communities go the extra mile with the Going for Gold campaign.

Going for Gold

A Brighter, Better, Cleaner Limerick!

The Limerick 'going for gold' campaign is continuing in 2013. The campaign aims to make Limerick a cleaner, brighter place to work, live and visit.

Going for Gold encourages businesses, community groups and individuals to improve their areas by getting involved in the national Tidy Towns Competition and generally improving their areas and reducing the impact of litter across the City.

Limerick City Council in association with the JP McManus Charitable Foundation is encouraging everyone to get involved.

Once again a €50,000 prize fund has been confirmed for Going for Gold Competition. It is likely that there will be some changes to last year’s Going for Gold categories and these along with the possibility of additional categories will be announced at a later date.
