Tallow has entered the Tidy Towns 2015 competition for the first time. We have a long road ahead and a lot of work to be done which will involve cleaning, painting and constant monitoring of litter. We are appealing to all residents and businesses to look after their own individual properties and area to the front of each property to ensure that paths are clean, litter free with no weeds present. We would appreciate if each house would arrange window boxes and hanging baskets to enhance the town. This year is our starting point and we will all move ahead in a positive manner to show Tallow to its best advantage!
