City candidate Josie Forde “outraged” as local children to be “locked out” of Corrib Park Astro

Proposed restrictions on Corrib Park Astro will see local children locked out of a cherished play area that has spanned generations.

That’s according to Fianna Faíl City Central candidate, Josie Forde.

She claims Galway City Council intends to operate it on a booking system, with priority given to clubs.

Josie Forde says locals are absolutely outraged, as local kids are set to effectively be punished by having their recreational space taken away.
