hey cathal i think you should organise more tasks like these for young troublemakers and the likes. its a good way to show that they can do something positive when they put their mind to it, rather than out causing destruction. perhaps the council will see the good work ye produce and stick to their word afterall. the way they see it is that regenerating such estates isnt worth it , seeing as they will most likely be burned to the ground like the rest of the houses there.
The Ballinacurra Weston Residents' Alliance have organised many events like this one, even scooping 1st prize in the 2011 Limerick Community Challenge. There is plenty of goodwill and limited support coming from the Environment section of the Council, but unfortunately not from Regeneration. The house featured in this video was eventually burnt out, forcing the residents on either side to move out because of the damage. It happened under the "watchful eye" of unmonitored CCTV cameras.
It's sad to know that I still live here and that this did help but only for a while Weston is definitely nowhere near as bad as it was but it's not exactly sunny green fields with leprechauns dancing around either because people won't just live their lives properly and contribute to society properly
@Clodbid Are anonymous and abusive comments regarding residents past all you have to contribute? I suppose we can't all be perfect like you. However, judging by your channel, you're little more than a slack jawed gawker that finds entertainment in the misery of others. Get a life and do something positive for a change - Cathal McCarthy, Limerick Regeneration Watch

and i really feel sorry for the innocent people in the estates that are living in fear all their lives.
