carrick-on-shannon heritage
experience
Aims to preserve the town’s heritage
by promoting regeneration and encouraging awareness of
the local environment, focusing on the restoration and
conservation of two valuable buildings in the town. Funding
is used to restore a Telford organ as part of the preservation
of St. George’s Church, which is to become a centre
for concerts and drama.
“The generous grant
from The American Ireland Fund has provided a major boost
to our efforts, both in itself and by enabling us to attract
additional grant funding from government and European sources.
With the help of this donation, we have been able to put
in hand the first stage of the restoration of St. George’s
Church.”
