Roscommon Community Safety Partnership

Great to have Roscommon represented at the recent national LCSP meeting in Athlone, hosted by the National Office of Community Safety.
Chair of Roscommon LCSP Cllr Pascal Fitzmaurice, Vice Chair Cllr Emer Kelly, SEO Fiona NíChuinn and Admin Niamh Duffy joined colleagues from across the country for a brilliant day of networking and sharing ideas.
It was an excellent opportunity to learn more about the progress being made by LCSPs nationwide and to strengthen connections as we continue working together to support safer, stronger communities.
