Keep Emo Court Free

We won! We've got a commitment that Emo court will remain free for people to use. Fair play to everyone who got behind the campaign.

We want Emo Court and Parklands to remain a free resource for the Irish people.

Why is this important?

Emo Park is a wonderful free amenity for the Irish people. It was gifted to the state for this purpose. New and worrying developments are now taking place which include fencing and padlocks. This is sealing off beautiful open areas which were previously free for all to access and enjoy. The natural beauty of Emo Park is being destroyed by these developments which appear to have the ultimate aim of charging for entry.
