18 months ago, the first ten items that came up in a Google search for ‘Moyross’ were all negative in the extreme characterising the estate solely in terms of criminality and gangs.
A new website Moyross.ie is nowadays often listed in the top three Google listings for Moyross.
At lunchtime today, July 27th, the Minister for Community, Equality and Gaeltacht Affairs, Pat Carey, officially launched www.moyross.ie, an accompanying blog and ‘Changing Ireland’s Youtube channel which passed the 10,000 viewers mark earlier this year.
The Moyross website and blog are supported locally by ‘Changing Ireland’.
The website builds on the popularity of the local newsletter ‘Moywrites’ produced by the Community Development Network Moyross and it utilises the IT skills and media expertise of ‘Changing Ireland’ staff based in the community, at no extra cost.
Meanwhile, work by the PAUL Partnership is ongoing to develop an integrated website for community groups across Limerick City - Limerickcommunities.ie and Moyross.ie will in time become part of and linked with this.
