Company Description
The Lough Carra Catchment Association (LCCA) is a community-driven environmental organisation that was founded in early 2018 to safeguard the ecological integrity of Lough Carra and its surrounding lakeshore habitats. Its core mission is to protect the quality of the lake's drinking water while preserving the unique natural values that make the catchment a treasured resource for residents and visitors alike.
LCCA works by promoting truly sustainable, environmentally-sensitive land-use practices throughout the catchment, seeking ways to reduce nutrient inputs from agriculture, forestry and septic systems, and pursuing measures that prevent any form of pollution. The association raises public awareness through regular meetings, educational podcasts, and events held in local community centres, and it supports angling groups by maintaining fishing counts and sharing historical records. By bringing together landowners, anglers, conservationists and the wider community, LCCA strives to ensure that Lough Carra remains a clean, vibrant lake for generations to come.
