The Manor Fields Adare supports the principles of Leave No Trace Ireland (www.leavenotraceireland.org)
As such all users of the Manor Fields, including teams playing matches here, families having picnics, walkers/joggers and families using the playground are asked to bring their litter home with them.
International practice has proven that having bins in outdoor recreation areas actually results in having more litter build up, resulting in rodents and flies etc. Based on this there are no bins at The Manor Fields to encourage users to dispose of their litter in a responsible manner at home.
We appreciate your assistance in this matter
