TEXT ALERT SERVICE
Following on the recent spate of robberies in the area it’s a good time to remind people of the presence of the Roundwood & District Text Alert Service. This service is in operation since 2014 and has proven to be of great benefit. The Gardaí send out short text alerts regarding issues of importance to the community such as suspicious activities, break-ins, events likely to impact on the community, etc.
A contribution of €10.00 is requested on joining the scheme. This covers the cost of the texts and running the scheme. It is very easy to join. Pick up a form in Roundwood Parish Hall or download it here http://www.roundwood.ie/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/TA-Sign-Up-Form.pdf. Fill in your details and pop it into the Roundwood Lotto Box above the ATM machine in Centra Roundwood.
