Ireland's most enterprising town accolade awarded to Ballina

Ballina has been recognised today as Ireland’s most enterprising town by Bank of Ireland, winning a prize of €10,000.

Local Councillor Mark Duffy said the accolade is down to the incredible volunteerism that has been displayed across so many different groups and organisations over the past number of months and the resilience the town has shown in the face adversity.

"Well done everyone who has made it a reality," he added.
