On the 27th of April 2011 a meeting was held by Mullagh Tidy Village Committee. There was a large attendance at the meeting where it was discussed that the Village needed a large improvement such as, properties to be painted, part of street to be tarred by Clare County Council, Flowers and trees to be planted around pump and Church and a tidy up of village in general. It was also decided to re-enter the Tidy Village Competition for 2011 which had been last entered in 2008, when the late Marie Sexton R.I.P. had done great work increasing the marks and appearance every year. We get great help & co-operation from Fás workers under the supervision of Nuala Shanahan.
The following are a list of members: Mart Ita Scales, Mary Ann Scales, John Joe Killeen, Donal Markham, Paul Sexton, Gerard Frawley, Eileen Griffin, Margaret (Mags) Cunningham, Tim Donnellan & Billy Merriman will give advice on flowers and tree planting. All suggestions welcome and appreciated.

Apostolic Work Society
June 2nd, 2011Mullagh Apostolic was formed in the parish 26 year ago (1985). Our number of workers is small but has very good membership. We find it difficult to encourage new work members to join. We make vestments, some with embroidery, some with braid, embroidered altar cloths and other small altar linens, clothes for children and adults in Mission Countries. Some home helpers do knitting – baby items, quilts etc. We would welcome new members and if necessary, would be glad to teach anyone willing to learn some embroidery stitches. We hold a display every year, usually the first Sunday in May where we display our years work & have a cake sale. Lots of good friends in the Parish help with home baking. One member specialises in making homemade jams. We hold a church gate collection yearly. All proceeds go to helping foreign missions.
