Protecting the Ahare River and its surrounding habitats
We're a group of local volunteers working to protect, promote, and enhance the natural beauty and ecological health of the Ahare River catchment
so wildlife, water and communities across north Wexford can thrive.
In Focus: Inch Feasibility Study
We are asking members of the local community to share their thoughts, stories and perspectives on the Inch River and its surrounding areas - to help us build a better picture of the sub-catchment, so we can understand how best to protect the river and its wildlife.
