Drogheda Community Forum was formally established in 1994 and has been actively involved in the community from this time. The Forum has developed into a valuable resource for community and voluntary groups in Drogheda. 

The aim of the Forum is to bring community organisations together, with particular focus on the involvement of excluded group within the community.  

It acts as a support agent to empower disadvantaged groups, to identify their needs, to access resources and to improve their quality of life.  

The forum is community led, with an active membership of over 30 voluntary/community groups. All the services we deliver are for all community and voluntary groups to participate in and we encourage groups to contact us and relate their needs. 

DCF will host a unique community networking event in Drogheda on September 16th 2010.

This exciting event is open to all community and voluntary groups to attend.
