South Lough Neagh Regeneration Association
South Lough Neagh Regeneration Association
South Lough Neagh Regeneration Association is a cross community not-for-profit organisation based in Maghery, Co Armagh, Northern Ireland. The organisation was established in November 1993 by community representatives as a response to the social isolation and economic stagnation of the area resulting in part from the absence of bridge crossings over the Bann and Blackwater.
Aim: To attract and encourage investment in the economic social and environmental well being of southern shores of Lough Neagh; to generate activity, employment, enthusiasm and pride in the community.
