SAVE CORK CITY COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Save Cork City Community Association CLG is a charitable community organisation dedicated to protecting and revitalising Cork's historic urban core. Through research-driven advocacy, the group campaigns for sustainable flood-defence solutions - most notably a downstream tidal barrier combined with the repair of historic quay walls - that keep the city open for business while safeguarding its unique 18th- and 19th-century architecture and riverside landscape.

The association's work spans public engagement, policy influence and design innovation. It runs campaigns such as "Love the Lee" to raise awareness of the River Lee's cultural and environmental value, and it has hosted design competitions to explore creative, long-term solutions for the city's quays. By publishing detailed reports, including the "Potential Cork" framework, Save Cork City provides evidence-based alternatives to costly, experimental flood schemes and encourages the use of natural floodplains and heritage-sensitive infrastructure.

Save Cork City invites residents, councillors, TDs and MPs to join its effort, offering clear actions for supporters and a platform for community voices to shape the future of Cork's historic centre.
