Donabate Parish Council - Funding and Communication

Funding and Communication

Donabate Parish Council publishes the Donabate Portrane community newsletter. It raises funds via an annual church gate collection, selling Christmas trees and advertisements carried in the newsletter. It organises occasional public meetings on different community issues, and usually forms action committees from such meetings. By getting people to join action committees, the community council aims to involve more people in shaping the community and at the same time, achieve better communication (through word-of-mouth) with the community.
