Study Visits to Brantry BARD & Bawn Hall
On Friday 15th September 2023 COSTA and CWSAN
teamed up to provide a Good Practice Study Visit for the Mid Ulster area
involving two very local Community organisations from both sides of the traditional political and cultural divide.
The Study Visit had two excellent examples of highly successful Groups in the Aughnacloy area:
Brantry BARD (Brantry Area Rural Development) and Bawn Development Association.
The Visits were excellent and provided very warm welcomes and hospitality.
Over 35 people attended the visits in total. COSTA and CWSAN sincerely thank both groups for kindly hosting the event and all the volunteers for their hard work in making the event so enjoyable and educational.
“What an inspirational day!”
“Thank you to the organisers and hosts.”
