Glanua donates to Loughrea and Cappataggle Hurling Clubs ahead of Sunday’s County Senior Hurling Final
As Galway prepares for this Sunday’s County Senior Hurling Final between Loughrea and Cappataggle, Loughrea based water and wastewater engineering company, Glanua is delighted to announce a donation of €1,500 to each club in support of this senior hurling showdown.
Glanua’s support is rooted in our firm ties to both parishes. Our Group Headquarters is located in Loughrea, while Cappataggle holds a special place in our history as one of the first water treatment plants to enter a long-term Operations and Maintenance contract as part of the Galway Group Water Scheme (GWS) Bundle.
