Do you want to chat about the future of Shandon? An exciting new project is underway to develop a heritage led Integrated Urban Strategy for the area, which is funded under Strand 1 of the Town Centre First Heritage Revival Scheme (THRIVE) from the @SouthernAssembl and @DeptHousingIRL. Cork City Council and its local community partners welcome everybody to our first consultation event ‘Let’s Talk Shandon’ which will be held in the Firkin Crane on Saturday 17th August from 10am to 5pm. All are welcome to come along and tell us everything they love about Shandon. This is an opportunity for you to share your views and help us shape the future of Shandon by telling us what you love, what the area needs more of and what it needs less of, your likes and dislikes about living, working, visiting and growing up in the area and the opportunities you believe there are to enhance this wonderful neighbourhood. If you cannot attend, you can still contribute by filling out a short survey here -> bit.ly/3WwC0XC Please see bit.ly/4cfsTQN for all details on this exciting project. #DHPLG #SouthernRegionalAssembly #THRIVE #TownCentreFirst #EUinmyregion #NewEuropeanBauhaus

My grasp of Irish is terrible, I really struggle but I love books like this that encourage me to try and keep going. This source explores the vibrant Irish speaking community that lived in and around Shandon. Míle Buíochas to @corkcitylibrary for the recommendation

This model of the @ShandonBells #Cork was made by father’s grand uncle. For years, the iconic goldie fish was missing but with a little perseverance & ingenuity I managed to replace it today! 🥳 I hope Uncle Bobby is smiling down.

It was lovely to meet @journohelen and her daughter on their recent visit to the city.

We've met some lovely birdwatching folk this last week looking for the Alpine Swifts who are hanging out in the Tower😍 Delighted to actually see one this evening high above the park around 7pm. #alpineswifts
