Community Enterprise
30 + YEARS OF COMMITMENT TO PILTOWN
Supporting business and encouraging start-ups
It all began.....
With a derelict site in the center of Piltown village…..
And now…..
THE OLD CREAMERY ENTERPRISE CENTRE was completed at the end of February 2019.
This consists of a further 2,580 sq. ft for the creation of jobs in our locality.
This Phase of the project is now complete.
We now have five units of various sizes which are designed to assist the development
of business start-ups and employment growth in our area.

Facilitated Projects
Over the years we have facilitated other projects and worked with other organisations to the benefit to the parish.
We are currently working with these three projects
PIL RIVER PARK
Work for the development of Pil River Park has been progressing steadily during these difficult and unsettling times.
Community Support has been a major part of this project. Our big event ‘The OsKars’ is still very much in the pipeline and will go ahead as soon as it is safe for us all to come together.
A positive sign of our community moving forward again.
