Company Description
Abhainn Dá Loilíoch Woodland Group Company Limited by Guarantee is a community‑driven environmental charity dedicated to the recovery, restoration and expansion of native woodlands in the Abhainn Dá Loilíoch river valley, south‑east of Gort, Co. Galway. The group safeguards three ancient oak woodlands—Drummin, Gortacarnaun and Lahardaun—which together span more than 150 ha, making them some of the largest remaining native forests in Ireland.
Through close collaboration with local residents, ecologists and statutory bodies, the organisation carries out practical woodland management, native‑species planting and habitat enhancement. It also offers specialised training programmes, such as water‑quality workshops and fungi identification sessions, and organises fundraising events like the annual Kila Concert. Volunteers are at the heart of the group’s work, contributing to hands‑on conservation, monitoring and community outreach.
By welcoming new volunteers, members and donors, Abhainn Dá Loilíoch aims to foster a vibrant, nature‑loving community that can protect and celebrate these historic forests for generations to come.
