Background to the Waters and Communities Award

The Waters and Communities Special Award was first introduced in 2017 and has gone from strength to strength. We received 38 high quality applications in 2022. The award is to recognise communities who are taking positive steps towards raising awareness and showing appreciation of their local rivers, lakes, streams, canals and coast. The Award is sponsored by Inland Fisheries Ireland www.fisheriesireland.ie (responsible for the protection, conservation and promotion of Fisheries); Waterways Ireland www.waterwaysireland.org  (responsible for the management of inland navigable waterways) and the Local Authority Waters Programme www.watersandcommunities.ie  (working with communities to get involved in the management of natural waters).
