At Wisetek, we are excited to share the recent success of our collaboration with Cork City Council and the local Blackpool Tidy Towns group for World Environmental Day 2024 to enhance and beautify the Blackpool area. This partnership underscores our dedication to enhancing the local environment and fostering a sense of community spirit.<\/p>\n
Volunteers from Wisetek, Cork City Council Community Wardens, and Blackpool Tidy Towns gathered to undertake activities aimed at cleaning and beautifying key areas in Blackpool. Our Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) team led the charge, ensuring that the event was both impactful and enjoyable for all participants.<\/p>\n
Community Activities Included:<\/strong><\/p>\n Litter Picking<\/strong>: Volunteers focused on cleaning up Dublin Hill, Dublin St\/Redforge Rd, Gt William O’Brien St, O’Connell St, Gerald Griffin St, and Watercourse Rd. With litter pickers provided by Cork City Council, we were able to efficiently collect and dispose of waste, significantly improving the cleanliness of these areas.<\/p>\n Decorative Stencil Painting<\/strong>: Adding a touch of artistic flair, we painted decorative stencils at the Orchard Court bridges. This creative initiative was supported by Chris Mooney, a talented local artist who generously provided the stencils for our project.<\/p>\n Flower Planting<\/strong>: To enhance the greenery and beauty of the community, volunteers planted flowers in small, raised bedding sections on the green opposite “Dinos” on Commons Road. The flowers, generously provided by Unforgettable Flowers Blackpool, added vibrant colour and life to the area.<\/p>\n Our EHS team, together with Cork City Council Community Wardens and Blackpool Tidy Towns, made a significant impact on the local environment, contributing to a cleaner and more beautiful Blackpool.<\/p>\n We extend our thanks to all volunteers and partners who made this event possible. Special thanks to Unforgettable Flowers Blackpool for their beautiful flower donation, Cork City Council for providing litter pickers, and local artist Chris Mooney for his creative contribution to the bridge painting.<\/p>\n At Wisetek, we are committed to continuing our efforts to support and enhance our local communities. Stay tuned for more updates on our community initiatives and how you can get involved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At Wisetek, we are excited to share the recent success of our collaboration with Cork City Council and the local Blackpool Tidy Towns group for World Environmental Day 2024 to enhance and beautify the Blackpool area.
