Be part of
something small,
special and shared 

Inishturk is more than a place to visit. It is a living island community, shaped by the Atlantic, sustained by cooperation, and held together by people who care deeply for one another and for the land and sea around them.

By becoming a member of the Inishturk community, you are helping to protect and support one of Ireland’s most remote inhabited islands — its people, its culture, and its future.

For a once-off €5 annual membership, you can play a meaningful part in keeping Inishturk vibrant, welcoming and resilient.

Why Membership Matters

Why Membership Matters With a year-round population of around 60 people, Inishturk relies on community effort, volunteering and shared responsibility. Much of what makes the island special — from the Community Club and shop to events, walking trails, heritage projects and environmental initiatives — exists because people choose to support it.

Your membership helps to:

  • Support the Inishturk Community Club, the social heart of the island
  • Contribute to community projects, events and local initiatives
  • Help maintain shared spaces, services and facilities
  • Protect the island’s natural environment, biodiversity and dark skies
  • Strengthen long-term plans for a liveable, sustainable island future 

Every membership, no matter how small the fee, is a vote of confidence in island life and the values it represents.its people and its future.

A Small Contribution, A Real Impact 

€5 might seem modest — and that’s exactly the point.

On Inishturk, progress happens through many small acts of care rather than big gestures. Membership contributions combine to support practical, everyday work: repairing, maintaining, planning, growing and protecting. Together, they help turn ideas into action and ensure the island remains a place where people can live, not just visit.

Your support helps keep Inishturk:

  • Community-led, not commercially driven
  • Nature-positive, working with land and sea
  • Welcoming to visitors, returners and future generations
