Statement by Cllr Stewart McDonald, TUV Bannside:
“Preparations are well underway for the arrival of the judges on 1st August for the Communities In Bloom competition.
“In the last number of years the people of Ahoghill have taken great pride in our village and once again all hands will be on deck to get the area in top shape.
“All the volunteers will be out, and I hope many new people will join with us this year. For my part I will be keeping at the Council and Transport NI to make sure hedges, verges, pot holes and roundabouts are all looked after properly in the run up to the event.
“Let’s put Ahoghill on the map yet again.”
