DONEGAL County Council will highlight the essential role it plays in supporting people and communities as part of Your Council Day 2026 on Friday, 26 June.
Your Council Day is the national campaign that highlights the integral role city and county councils play in supporting everyday life.
Co-ordinated by the Local Government Management Agency (LGMA) and supported by all 31 local authorities, the campaign provides a shared opportunity for councils to showcase the work they do.
The 2026 theme, Supporting Communities Every Day, focuses on the practical, behind the scenes and lived impact of council services, including community supports, infrastructure, planning, arts and culture, environmental services and democratic engagement.
Donegal County Council will be highlighting the wide range of services and supports delivered across the county, including community development, roads and infrastructure, planning, housing, environmental services, libraries, arts and culture, emergency supports and local democracy.
The public is encouraged to follow the day’s activity on Donegal County Council’s social media channels and join the conversation using the hashtags #YourCouncilDay #DoLáSaChomhairle.
Chief Executive of Donegal County Council, John G. McLaughlin, said: “Your Council Day is about proactively highlighting the vital, everyday work this Council does to support people and communities across Donegal.”
Cathaoirleach of Donegal County Council, Cllr Paul Canning, added: “It is also a chance to recognise the commitment and professionalism of our staff, who deliver essential services every day and work closely with communities to support local needs. Their work, often behind the scenes, plays a vital role in maintaining and enhancing quality of life across Donegal.”
