CACD directors and staff were delighted to join with invited guests from other community organisations to attend the launch of the first-ever Heritage Strategy for Armagh City, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council!🎉
The 10 year plan sets out how to protect, celebrate and invest in our rich and diverse heritage for future generations.
Shaped by input from over 10,000 people, the strategy reflects what heritage truly means to our communities – from historic places and landscapes to traditions and stories.

Armagh City, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council is the first designated Heritage Place in Northern Ireland, this is an important step in unlocking the potential of our local heritage.

On Thursday, CACD enjoyed a fantastic visit to the Tayto Factory in Tandragee! 🥔🏭

The tour was brilliant, learning about how the crisps and snacks are made. 😋 We were even lucky enough to sample lots of delicious treats along the way!

A huge thank you to the Tayto staff for looking after us so well and for sharing their knowledge about the fascinating history of the castle. 🏰👏

We would also like to thank The Co-Ownership Community Fund for supporting our visit and making this wonderful experience possible. ❤️

A great day was had by all! 😊🎉
