2010 TESTIMONIALS
The ARC (Ardfield and Rathbarry Community) Newsletter - a one-person operated and non-profit venture – was, quite honestly, and at the risk of sounding cliché, just pleased to be nominated for the 2010 Best Use in External Communications category.
Winning the award was nothing short of exhilarating – The ARC, a small community based publication being chosen above such reputable websites.

John Fleming Architects Winner of the Best Mixed Development Award 2010 We were absolutely thrilled to be the winners of the 2010 LAMA Awards in the Best Architect category. This represented an acknowledgment at the highest level for the projects we had completed in the previous year for various local authorities around the country. As always, completing any successful project is dependent on a supreme team effort, involving the whole design team and many dedicated individuals, and in particular, it is dependent on having a good client.SEÁN HARRINGTON

HILLBACK DEVELOPMENTS Winner of the Best Developer Award 2010 Thank you for an excellent night last Saturday. I attend many of these events and they are generally boring and just not enjoyable. Your event was a very different experience. This was one of the best organized events I have attended for ages. The pace of the event was excellent and Miriam O’Callaghan did an excellent job. Congratulations to all involved. I saw first hand the effort that went into the event early in the day and this effort certainly paid off in a very smooth event.BERNARD FLYNN
