Hi sunday,
You're right -- we need more JumbleTowners in Galway and the West in general. It's partly to do with population numbers and density but also media coverage there. As far as I know, the only piece about JumbleTown in the West has come from the Galway-based "Ur Dream Home" magazine (please see here:

Around 20 radio stations and several newspapers and websites around the country have helped to promote JumbleTown by way of interviews or advertisements: please see here:

The Local Authorities listed in the links at the top of each page of the website have also supported JumbleTown's ethos of "life-cycling" (re-use) under the "Local Agenda 21 Scheme."
JumbleTowners themselves have also been active in spreading the word. Simply telling a relative, friend, or neighbour is one of the most effective ways to increase the number of Givers and Takers in an area or region.
If you wish to help spread the word in your community or workplace, you can download an A4 JumbleTown poster in word document format here:

Thanks for the feedback, sunday.
