Fine Gael TD John Paul Phelan has welcomed news that 43 locally-led projects in Kilkenny will benefit under the 2021 Community Enhancement Programme.
The 2021 Community Enhancement Programme was launched in May 2021 with funding of €4.5 million to provide small grants to local community groups across the country. Kilkenny received an allocation of €136,319 from the Department under the programme.
“The key theme of this year’s programme was supporting groups as they re-open facilities which have been closed due to Covid-19”, Deputy Phelan says.
“These ground-up projects could include facilities such as community centres, men’s and women’s sheds, parish halls and youth centres. While these grants are small in nature, they can make a big difference by allowing local community organisations to carry out much needed works in their area.”
