Merry Christmas…
To all residents of Greenfields, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
The past few months have been a busy time around the estate. Greenfields recently won the Merit Award for Best Large Residential Area at the Waterford City Councils Pride of Place Environmental Awards, we held a number of very successful Clean-up Days and even managed to get the street lights fixed!
Going forward, the Committee are looking forward to working together to keep our neighbourhood a safe and enjoyable place to live. Have a safe and happy Christmas.
The Greenfields Residents Association
Be Winter Ready
Severe weather challenges all of us. Activities that we take for granted can become difficult or even hazardous when severe weather occurs. However, by taking some simple steps you can reduce the impact of such events.
Prepared by the Government Task Force on Emergency Planning, the Winter-Ready Booklet gives information on being prepared for winter and provides practical advice for coping during episodes of sever weather, as well as giving contact details of organisations and agencies that can provide guidance and assistance.
