Members vote 56-0 to endorse Save Tolka Park Campaign

We are delighted to announce that incredibly over 85% of members voted in last week’s online poll to endorse the Save Tolka Park Campaign.

The result was 56-0 in favour of endorsement. This endorsement will allow The Trust to give its direct support to Save Tolka Park. This will include in the short term showing support for social media campaigns and promoting the launch of the campaign and recruiting volunteers for the campaign’s leafleting strategy which begins this Sunday.

Save Tolka Park Campaign Launch

The campaign will formally launch tomorrow Thursday June 10th at 7pm over Zoom. The link is included below. The 1895 Trust encourages all members and supporters to attend. A recording of the meeting will be made available afterward for those who cannot attend.

Save Tolka Park release for the launch says:

“We will, collectively, publish our proposal for the retention and refurbishment of Tolka Park.

•       The campaign will outline why Dublin City councillors must vote against the planned rezoning and sale of Tolka Park (currently owned by Dublin City Council) to private developers.
•       A fully costed proposal for a refurbished, re-imagined and community-centered Tolka Park will be presented.
•       Campaigners from STP will be joined by guest speakers, including Eamon Dunphy, Una Mullally, David Balfe (For Those I Love) and Pamela Connolly (Pillow Queens).”
