Protect Our Heritage

Studies have shown that around 85% of money spent in multinational stores flows straight out of the local economy.

Locally owned businesses recycle a much bigger share of money into the local economy because they buy more goods and services from other local businessess, than multinationals would. source: http://news.minnesota.publicradio.org/features/2005

Ennis also has beautiful green spots such as around the Friary. There are plenty of enjoyable walks and cycles along the River Fergus, and the surrounding countryside just outside the town.

As the town expands, we need to preserve these green areas and ensure sustainable development. Creating more open green areas is much needed, where people can relax. As citizens of Ennis, we need to remind our local representatives of these issues.

"Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
Bruntland, G (ed) (1987)
