People in the wider Buncrana area gained a wealth of information about their local community groups and organisations at the first Buncrana Volunteer Fair which took place last week.
On Tuesday, July 9th, local groups gathered at St. Mary’s Hall in Buncrana to showcase their organisations and the opportunities available.
The fair, which was organised by the Inishowen Development Partnership in association with Donegal Volunteers Centre, gave people the chance to get to know what community groups and organisations are active in their area.
Check out photos from the event here, with thanks to Inishowen Development Partnership.
