We are developing this page with the hope that it will facilitate and strengthen contacts and connections between all who have an interest in Dunleer. It was established in 1998. It grew out of an idea that the town needed a forum to foster good relations within the community and beyond, one forum that various bodies of authority could speak to if they needed to address concerns of the community. In recent years, the Body has grown in expertise, and become a facilitator for it's member groups, to the point where it is often thought of as a nascent Town Council, and is certainly well respected by official authorities. Its work has become far reaching, and is having a positive effect on the town. Since it's foundation, the umbrella body has grown in membership to over thirty different groups representing a diverse cross-section of society in the Dunleer Area of Co.
