BASICC and Donegal Council are seeking the publics help to identify priorities to support the sustainable expansion of the Drumboe Woods for the enjoyment of our community and visitors.
A feasibility study is underway to help answer these question and BASICC want to hear from you, the community, to hear your thoughts and aspirations for ‘Your Place.’
The Drumboe and Environs Feasibility Study has been commissioned by the Ballybofey and Stranorlar Integrated Community Company CLG (BASICC) in conjunction with Donegal County Council. BASICC is a not-for- profit social enterprise based in Co. Donegal whose mission is to encourage, drive and foster innovation so the towns of Ballybofey and Stranorlar are a great place to live, work, visit and do business.
They aim to do this by establishing strong networks and partnerships to develop and support sustainable initiatives. BASICC’s vision is that Ballybofey and Stranorlar stand out as a thriving community that provides real and valuable opportunities for everyone.
The study is led by Pasparakis Friel Architects with support from KPMG, Earthy Matters, and Sammon. Funding for the project has been provided by the Leader programme and Donegal County Council.
Ambitious and exciting initial concepts have been developed. These concepts are based on from public feedback received in 2019/20. Consultation boards are in place in Drumboe Woods for public viewing from mid December 2021 until end of
January 2022. The boards are at the Drumboe Avenue entrance to the Woods, adjacent to the Scouts Den.
Your thoughts and feedback can be emailed to the project team at: mydrumboewoods@gmail.com or you can also post your written comments to the feedback box located next to the consultation boards.
