Dear Residents 

Welcome to our second edition 

of Council’s Connect magazine 

with an update on Council services 

and events that are happening. 

It’s a chance for you see at first 

hand the work we are doing on 

the ground to deliver quality 

public services across the 

Derry City and Strabane 

District Council area. 

I hope you have all had the 

chance to enjoy the summer 

and are feeling refreshed and 

energized, and are back to 

work and school for another 

busy term and ready to take 

an active part in the wide range 

of Council events and activities 

we are involved in. 

Since our inaugural edition that 

was published back in February 

we’ve had a Local Government 

Election that has resulted in 

a number of new faces in the 

Council chamber – including 

my own! This is an exciting and 

challenging time for our Council 

and a fantastic opportunity to 

work together to build on the 

positive work already underway 

in Derry and Strabane. 

In this edition we give an update 

on some of the wider corporate 

projects that Council is involved 

in as well as provide you with 

some information on up and 

coming events, the services 

we offer and an insight into what 

some of our partner organisations 

are doing with us to bring about 

positive change for our Council area. 

Since our first edition, we have 

enjoyed success on a number 

of fronts, we have secured 

a City Deal, confirmed funding 

for an £8m Riverine regeneration 

project, in Strabane invested in 

a number of play and community 

facilities and won awards for our 

Halloween festival and for our 

services at the Tower Museum. 

As a Council we continue to strive 

towards success and the delivery 

of quality services that meet the 

needs and vision set out in our 

Strategic Growth Plan and are 

looking forward to a busy autumn 

winter season and another hugely 

successful Halloween festival. 

I hope you enjoy reading the 

latest edition of the magazine 

and find it an informative and 

useful guide for your household. 

All feedback on services is welcome 

and if you have any suggestions 

on useful additions to the magazine, 

please do get in touch.

Council in drive to 

promote Apprenticeships 

Events to mark 400 

year old Wall continues 

2019 marks the 400th 

anniversary of the completion 

of the Walls. We’ve developed 

a full and vibrant summer 

programme of events to mark this 

significant heritage led anniversary. 

Visitors and locals will have 

enjoyed seeing an eclectic range 

of musical ensembles, dance audio 

plays, historical and contemporary 

exhibitions, symposiums, films, 

living archaeology demonstrations 

and workshops, visual 

arts exhibitions over the 

summer months. 

But don’t worry, the programme 

of events are set to continue during 

September. So if you haven’t been 

part of them to date you can still 

get involved. For more info visit 

www.walledcity400.com 


District Council has been 

working proactively with 

its partners in the education, 

training, skills and businesses 

sectors to promote 

apprenticeships. 

As part of its Get Paid, 

Get Qualified, Get Ahead 

slogan, the Council has been 

working with the NW Regional 

College and other partners 

to put apprenticeships back 

at the heart of the education 

and training systems. 

In an effort to promote the 

message and get more young 

people to sign up, the Council 

has been showcasing a range 

of local success stories across 

the Council area, telling the 

stories of young people 

who have benefited from 

gaining an industry recognised 

qualification whilst in paid work. 

A key element of the campaign 

is also showing the benefits 

for businesses and the positive 

impact it has for them in terms 

of recruitment processes, affordable 

and motivated workforce and the 

ability to reduce skills shortages, 

address skills gaps and ultimately 

increase their productivity. 

If you are a young person 

interested in pursuing training 

and qualifications through an 

apprenticeship scheme visit 

www.getapprenticeships.me 

or telephone 028 71 308466

Co-Delivery Group 

appointed to deliver 

Arts & Culture Strategy 

Council to benefit from 

£15m for Fibre Broadband 


District Council is one of 

a number of Councils across 

NI to receive funding to further 

boost fibre availability. The 

£15m funding comes from the 

Department for Digital, Culture, 

Media and Sport (DCMS) through 

its Local Full Fibre Networks 

Programme (LFFN). 

In June 2018, Northern Ireland 

councils came together to form 

the Full Fibre Northern Ireland 

Consortium (FFNI to implement 

an exciting new collaborative 

programme to drive greater 

investment in fibre and digital 

infrastructure across the region. 

The project will enable Council to 

significantly develop its ability to 

deliver services and improve access 

for communities and residents. Its 

hoped that this will be the first of 

many such investments 

over the next few years. 

This £15 million boost for 

gigabit speeds in Northern 

Ireland will benefit homes and 

businesses across the country 

and I congratulate the Full 

Fibre Northern Ireland Consortium 

in its successful bid. Currently 

only 12% of premises in Northern 

Ireland have access to full fibre 

connectivity and outside of 

the major conurbations the 

figure is much lower. 

It will provide a vital local 

link for future DCMS digital 

programmes and will continue 

to work closely with the 

Department for the Economy 

and associated initiatives to 

ensure a joined-up approach 

to digital investment 

across the region. 

A Co-Delivery Design group 

to oversee the implementation 

of Council’s new Arts and Culture 

Strategy (2019-2024) for the 

City and District was appointed 

over the summer. The strategy 

will complement Council’s 

Tourism Strategy and Integrated 

Economic Development Strategy. 

The aims are to engage citizens 

and grow audiences, deliver 

a high quality arts programme, 

invest in the potential of our 

creative sector, strengthen 

the cultural infrastructure 

of the region while growing 

employment opportunities 

and demonstrate and 

communicate the difference 

that our community makes. 

In addition to inviting relevant 

statutory and support agencies 

this advisory group will include 

Council’s elected Members on 

a cross party basis as well as 

Council Officers. The group will 

meet four times per annum as 

well as deliver an open annual 

meeting to review the strategy, 

discuss progress and consider 

ongoing process implementation. 

The full list of selected nominees 

are: Cath McBride, Eibhlín Ní 

Dhochartaigh, Stephen Batts, 

Catherine Hemelryk, Edel MacBride, 

Lisa Heaney, Derek Moore, Rachel 

Melaugh, Fiona Umetsu, Pauline 

Gardiner, Anne McMaster, 

James Kee and Tommy Barr.

After many months of intensive 

work May brought the 

announcement of a City Deal 

package for Derry and Strabane 

that will be pivotal to driving 

forwards the ambitions for 

growth here in the North West. 

Council and its partners are 

extremely proud of the efforts 

that have gone in to securing 

the funding package that will 

see £105m channelled into 

priority projects here, with 

the potential to leverage an 

overall economic boost of 

upwards of £300m with the 

support of government and 

other third parties over 

the coming years. 

With a clear blueprint for 

transformation already 

developed in the form of the 

Strategic Growth Plan, we can 

look forward to major advances 

in infrastructure, education, skills, 

innovation and regeneration. 

The City Deal funding will be 

used to drive innovation and 

smart/digital cities projects 

focusing on innovation and 

data analytics and robotics and 

automation along with key smart 

digital city and region initiatives. 

Priority will be placed on bringing 

forward the development of the 

Graduate Medical School, the 

further expansion at Magee, the 

provision of mixed-use facilities 

as part of the regeneration of 

Strabane Town Centre and the 

delivery of a Personalised Medicine 

Centre of Excellence at Magee. 

Other key projects include 

the development of civic and 

commercial offices on Foyle 

Street and riverfront regeneration 

as well as key tourism, economic 

and social projects. 

Council and its partners are working 

with Government to identifying the 

most impactful projects thatcan 

move forward. This work will pick 

up pace in the coming months to 

establish the structures needed to 

further progress the business cases 

for these priority projects and to 

set the wheels in motion for their 

delivery and the transformation of 

the North West City Region.

businesses situated there. 

Several events are planned on 

the Square and other site areas over 

the summer months, with a concert 

and Fun Fair planned for Halloween. 

The impressive new Limavady 

Road entrance has been designed 

to improve access to the site and 

will aid traffic and pedestrian flow 

around the development. The 

new entrance and road, including 

an onsite car park, will 

open mid-summer. 

Most of the buildings have been 

leased or have a development 

agreement in place and the final 

available buildings were placed 

on the open market in June.

International 

Appalachian Trail 

Council is working with its 

partners on the development 

of the International Appalachian 

Trail project, a 282 miles route 

running from west Donegal to 

Larne, that will see significant 

investment in this long-distance 

walking trail in the coming years. 


District Council is the lead 

partner and is working alongside 

five neighbouring Councils 

including Donegal, to maximise 

the opportunities the Trail will 

present to the region in terms 

of business and tourism. 

The Ulster Ireland section of the 

International Appalachian Trail 

starts at Bunglas Viewpoint in the 

spectacular Sliabh Liag Mountains 

and passes through the Blue Stack 

Mountains in Co Donegal before 

crossing the border into Northern 

Ireland. Here the route picks up 

the Ulster Way where it takes 

in the landscapes of Tyrone 

and the Sperrins, passing onto 

the Giant’s Causeway and 

the stunning north Antrim 

coastline before traversing 

the Glens of Antrim and 

finishing at the port of Larne. 

The Ulster Ireland chapter 

of Trail is just one of a number 

of chapters which comprise 

the International Appalachian 

Trail family and which include 

among others Maine in the US, 

Quebec in Canada, Iceland, 

England, Scotland, Wales, 

Netherlands, Denmark, 

Sweden, Norway, France, 

Spain and Morocco. 

All chapters share a common goal 

to establish a network of walking 

trails that extend beyond borders 

to all geographic regions once 

connected by the Appalachian- 

Caledonian orogen, formed more 

than 250 million years ago on the 

super-continent Pangea.

Not seen before objects 

in Tower Museum’s Walls 

400 exhibition 

Got a complaint? 

The Consumer Council 

may be able to help! 

As part of our Walls 400 

celebrations the Tower Museum 

has curated a unique exhibition 

using a treasure trove of objects 

and archive materials from its 

collections to tell the story of 

the Walls, the city and its people. 

Constructed between 1613 and 

1619, the Walled City is the only 

remaining completely walled city 

in Ireland and one of the finest 

examples in Europe.The exhibition 

which has been opened since 

mid-July and will run until 26 

January 2020, displays some 

objects never been seen 

before, including pottery, 

ceramics, leather and currency 

unearthed in archaeological 

digs in 1970s & 1980s. 

These objects not only tell us 

about life and events within, 

without and around the walls 

from the last 400 years, but also 

help us to understand how people 

would have lived day to day. It 

is a fascinating story of social 

history that spans war, rebellion, 

peace and culture. 

For further information please 

contact the Tower Museum at 

02871 372411 or tower@

Last year The Consumer Council 

dealt with over 5,000 complaints 

and enquiries, returning over 

£191,000 to consumers in Northern 

Ireland. Derry City and Strabane 

District Council has teamed up 

with the Consumer Council to 

encourage the public in Derry 

and Strabane to avail of their

contacted the company 

who issued the charge. 

Residents in the Derry City and 

Strabane District Council who 

are worried about the accuracy 

of an electricity bill, or have 

received a private car parking 

notice, are encouraged to get in 

touch. They also offer advice if 

you have experienced a flight delay 

or cancellation and are unsure of 

your rights or if you are a farmer or 

business owner and have concerns 

over a larger than usual water bill. 

The Consumer Council also 

provides the public with the 

tools needed to shop around 

for the best deal and to help make 

the household budget go further.

Countdown to 

2019 

Among the highlights for this 

year’s Halloween celebrations is 

the return of the hugely popular 

Saurus, the biggest – and hungriest 

– beasts that ever roamed the earth 

and the magnificent Museum of the 

Moon. These are just some of the 

acts making a welcome return to the 

annual Halloween celebrations that 

take place from 25 October to 

01 November. 

New events include the Celestial 

Soundcloud, a digital sound light 

sculpture, inspired by cosmic clouds 

and nebulas and, Eyes to the Skies, 

an aerial dance spectacle with 

bespoke musical compositions and 

a human Catherine wheel. A key 

feature this year is the LegenDerry 

Halloween Food Village which 

will tie in with Taste The Island 

campaign being promoted 

through Tourism NI. 

Other highlights include Awakening 

of the Walls, Little Horrors Family 

Programme, Tours ‘n Trails, Samhain 

Sessions, street animation and of 

course the hugely popular Carnival 

Parade and Fireworks on 31 October. 

The theme for this year is 

“The Other World Awakens” 

which acknowledges the festival’s 

Celtic traditions and stories 

of the historic 400-year-old Walls. 

Officers are currently putting the 

final touches to the Halloween 

programme and are working with 

businesses and the community 

in both Derry and Strabane to 

maximise the opportunities this 

hugely popular festival brings. 

A recent report to Council on the 

significance of Halloween to the 

local economy showed that the 

revenue received by NI based 

businesses and traders as a direct 

result of Derry Halloween 2018, 

was £3,200,723.

Clipper Race set 

to return for Foyle 

Maritime Festival 2020 

We are delighted to announce that 

the international Clipper Round the 

World Race is coming back and 

will be a feature of our much-loved 

Foyle Maritime Festival set to take 

place 25 July – 02 August 2020. 

Council is really proud of the 

relationship it has with the 

Clipper Race and to be a host 

port for the 2019/20 Race. 

The City has a strong working 

relationship with Clipper Ventures 

in supporting this global event 

and looking back over the past 

four races we have experienced 

some of the happiest and most 

memorable moments for our city 

being part of this phenomenal race. 

The partnership with Clipper 

Ventures gives a significant 

international exposure as the 

Race takes in 14 ports in six 

continents and helps us 

position our city and region as 

a world-class visitor destination. 

In 2018 the Foyle Maritime 

Festival attracted over 210,000 

attendees with international 

visitors accounting for 30% per 

cent of those who visited the city, 

30 

an increase of almost 400% on 

when the city first hosted this 

prestigious race in 2012. With over 

19,000 bed nights purchased for the 

festival and an estimated economic 

impact of at least £2million for the 

local economy the success of acting 

as a host port in 2018 benefited the 

city and region financially as well 

as achieving a global promotional 

campaign valued at £4.8 million. 

Bringing it back to the city in 

the summer of 2020 opens up a 

variety of opportunities for us to 

celebrate all that is good about our 

city and region. Not only can we 

promote the city and region to a 

global audience but we can use it 

to drive visitor numbers, encourage 

businesses to participate and help 

drive the economy and showcase 

our wonderful maritime heritage. 

The Festival and Events team 

are working over the winter 

months with our partners to 

put together an extensive 

festival programme of events 

for the festival. 

Further details of the festival 

will be available online and via 

our Foyle Maritime Festival 

facebook and twitter platforms 

www.foylemaritimefestival.com 

Slow Food Festival 

to return this Autumn. 

The best of local, clean, fair food 

is on the menu when the Slow 

Food Festival returns to Guildhall 

Square over the weekend of 

12th and 13th October 2019. 

Slow Food is a global, 

grassroots organisation that 

promotes true enjoyment of 

good food with the commitment 

to community and the environment. 

We are delighted to once again 

host this FREE major celebration 

that showcases the best of 

local, clean, fair food from 

across the North West. 

The Festival features a Slow 

Food Harvest Market, talks & 

demos, tours and tastings, street 

food, family fun and much more! 

The Festival is supported by 

the Department of Agriculture, 

Environment and Rural Affairs 

(DAERA), Northern Ireland 

Regional Food Programme.

community as an event space as 

well as a transport facility. 

NWMMTH will be a vital gateway 

to and from the North-West 

region, and will act as a catalyst 

for development in the Waterside/ 

Duke Street area. It will also help to 

support local business, leisure and 

tourism. Alongside the protection 

of the Grade B-listed structure, the 

project will encourage a modal shift 

in transport habits by providing for 

integrated and convenient services, 

encouraging more active travel for 

a healthier region, all of which helps 

to fulfil Translink’s vision of making 

public transport ‘your first choice 

for travel’ in Northern Ireland. 

North-West Multi-Modal 

Hub on Track! 

Work is progressing well on 

the North-West Multi-Modal 

Transport Hub (NWMMTH), 

with Phase 1 works on track to 

complete during October 2019. 

This will include refurbishment 

work on the Grade B-listed 

Waterside Train Station, the 

focal point of the new facility, 

as well as associated track and 

signalling works. The entire 

project will complete during 2020. 

Representing an investment 

of around £27m, funding for this 

major project has been secured 

from the European Union’s 

INTERREG VA Programme, 

managed by the Special EU 

Programmes Board (SEUPB), 

with match funding provided 

by the Department for 

Infrastructure and the 

Department for Transport, 

Tourism and Sport in the 

Republic of Ireland. 

Phase 1 work has focused on the 

Victorian station building, including 

refurbishing the iconic clock tower, 

platform reconstruction and track 

work. Phase 2 works will focus 

on the construction of a new bus 

turning circle, the demolition of the 

existing 1980s’-era station building, 

river wall works and the provision 

of an approximately 90-space 

park and ride site. 

NWMMTH will also provide a 

new greenway link to the city 

centre via the Peace Bridge, 

alongside additional cycle 

storage and an integrated 

facility for the provision of 

local bus and rail services. 

Community engagement work 

is ongoing, with Translink leading 

engagement with local schools and 

training organisations in the city. 

Translink is also co-operating with 

the Council to lead efforts to fully 

integrate NWMMTH into the wider 

North West Greenway 

pedals ahead 

Together with our partners, 

we are building 46.5km of 

cross-border greenways 

including, Derry – Buncrana, 

Derry – Muff and Strabane – Lifford. 

This exciting project is connecting 

people and places and is in 

addition to our expanding city 

greenway network that has been 

developed recently at Kilfennan, 

Clooney, St Columb’s Park Avenue 

and Ebrington next to the new 

Multi-Modal Transport Hub. 

Over the coming months, we hope 

to secure planning permission for 

the Culmore, Muff and Strabane 

sections and continue negotiations 

with landowners in order to secure 

spaces, with a view to starting 

construction works in Muff, Strabane 

and Lifford in early 2020!
