Each year DERA submits a number of entries to the Dublin City Council Neighbourhoods Competition, representing projects undertaken by DERA’S Environmental Team & Volunteers on which they work all year round for the benefit of all our community. Judging normally takes place in June with competition results announced in September. DERA has an excellent track record, but this year’s results were exceptional: we received 7 awards at the North Central Area City Neighbourhood Awards evening on September 3rd.
