The Sponsors A Chairde, I am pleased to announce 2015 as the 24th year of SuperValu’s sponsorship of the national TidyTowns competition. This is the longest running sponsorship in Ireland and one that we are extremely proud to be associated with through the years. At SuperValu, we believe in local communities and nothing embodies local more than the annual SuperValu TidyTowns initiative. SuperValu and TidyTowns is a perfect partnership, as our 222 SuperValu stores are embedded in communities throughout Ireland and our retailers, similar to TidyTowns committees, form part of the fabric of towns and villages across Ireland. Down through the years, we have worked closely with the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government to ensure that this significant competition continues to gather the momentum it deserves and is recognised for the value it adds to communities across Ireland. Our retailers and store managers are uniquely positioned to build relationships and work with TidyTowns committees within their local communities. We acknowledge the power of local community and the significant impact it makes to our country as a whole. Our SuperValu retailers have served the people of Ireland for over 35 years and like many TidyTowns committees, they work tirelessly to enhance the areas in which they live and work, and understand the importance of having pride in the local community. SuperValu stores serve not just as places to shop but as community hubs where neighbour’s meet, and exchange news and views. We live in challenging times, economically and socially, but the SuperValu TidyTowns competition demonstrates time and again, the total dedication of people up and down the country to building vibrant communities. We pride ourselves on this partnership and will continue to encourage people of all age groups across Ireland to participate in the competition. This year, we are encouraging more young people to get involved with the inclusion of a youth category award, which will recognise some of the fine work undertaken by younger committee members. In addition, we will celebrate the hard work and dedication of committee members through our Community Heroes’ award, with a specific focus on acknowledging young TidyTowns members. We encourage you to keep us informed of your progress throughout the competition as you help your community to be a better place to live. Be sure to check out our website supervalu.ie for competition updates. Also please share with us some committee photos of your hard work on our Facebook page, facebook.com/ SuperValuIreland and tweet us on twitter.com, search @SuperValuIRL. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to wish you the very best for what promises to be another successful and enjoyable SuperValu TidyTowns 2015. Go n-éirí an t-ádh libh go léir! Martin Kelleher, Managing Director, SuperValu

Urraitheoirí A chairde, Is bliain mhór do SuperValu agus don chomórtas náisiúnta Bailte Slachtmhara í 2012. Táimid ag ceiliúradh 21 bliain d’Urraíocht ó SuperValu ar na Bailte Slachmhara, ceann de na comhpháirtithe urraíochta dá leitheid is faide atá fós ar siúl in Éirinn. Ábhar mórtais faoi leith dúinn a bheith ag fógairt i mbliana go bhfuil athnuachan agus treisiú déanta ar an gcomhpháirtíocht sin agus go bhfuilimid inár bPríomh-Urra ar chomórtas Bailte Slachtmhara SuperValu. Is tréimhse dúshlánach í seo ar chuinsí eacnamaíochta agus ar chuinsí sóisialta ach léiríonn comórtas Bailte Slachtmhara SuperValu arís agus arís eile an tiomantas agus an díograis a spreagtar i measc na ndaoine ar son na comharsanachta áitiúil. Ní dóigh linne go bhfuil bealach níos fearr a léireoidh ár dtiomantas i leith comharsanachtaí áitiúla beomhara a thógáil ná Urraíocht a dhéanamh ar na Bailte Slachtmhara.Ní mar shiopaí amháin a fheidhmíonn na 195 siopa atá againn ar fud na tíre. Is lárionaid iad freisin ina gcastar comharsana agus cairde ar a chéile le bheith ag comhrá lena chéile agus le nuacht agus tuairimí a mhalartú. Táimid bródúil as a bheith i gceartlár na gcomhrsanachtaí áitiúla agus sin is cúis leis an gcomhbhá atá idir Bailte Slachtmhara SuperValu agus éiteas bhranda SuperValu.Tá clár fairsing gníomhaíochtaí pleanáilte againn le haghaidh Bailte Slachtmhara SuperValu i 2012. Tá súil againn trínár gcuid oibre leis an Roinn Comhshaoil, Pobail agus Rialtais Áitiúil an scéim Get Your Hands Dirty for Supervalu TidyTowns a chur chun cinn i gcomharsnachtaí ar fud na tíre. Beidh SuperValu ag tabhairt tacaíochta do choistí áitiúla Bailte Slachtmhara trí phacáistí cúnaimh a dháileadh inár siopaí ar fud na tíre, pacáistí ina mbeidh nithe úsáideacha le cuidiú leat i do chuid ullmhúchán do chomórtas na bliana seo. Déanfaidh Comórtas Laochra Bhailte Slachtmhara SuperValu ceiliúradh ar an obair chrua a dhéanann na daoine a bhíonn ar na coistí agus ar a ndíograis. Déan cinnte de go bhféachann tú ar www.facebook.com/SuperValuIreland chun an nuacht is deireanaí a fháil maidir le comórtas Bailte Slachtmhara SuperValu agus chun eolas a fháil conas daoine a spreagadh le tabhairt faoin nglantachán ar son na comharsanachtha áitiúla faoin scéim get your hands dirty. Mar fhocal scoir ba mhaith liom an deis seo a ghlacadh le gach rath agus gach beannacht a ghuí ort le linn Bhailte Slachtmhara 2012. Go n-éirí an t-ádh libh go léir.
