The Mayor of the County of Cork, Cllr. Danny Collins presented prizes to the winner Aoife Cowman and runner up Darren O’Connor in Cork County Hall on Monday 13th February 2023.

The housing projects were a collaboration with the Cork County Architects and the Cork Age Friendly Alliance who attended the key student design reviews.
