Funding for Local Enhancement Programme 2025 Launched
Tipperary County Council on behalf of Tipperary Local Community Development Committee (LCDC) has launched its Local Enhancement Programme for 2025. Late last year Minister for Rural and Community Development Heather Humphreys and Minister of State with responsibility for Community Development and Charities Joe O’Brien announced €7 million for the Country in funding under the “Department of Rural and Community Development Local Enhancement Programme 2025”.
Funding of €206,558 has been allocated to Tipperary for small scale capital supports for community groups and organisations, particularly those who serve disadvantaged communities in rural and urban areas.
There will be a particular focus on small capital works/improvements, and the purchase of equipment for community use. The funding may be used, but is not limited to; improved access for persons with a disability; enhancing community participation for disadvantaged and marginalised groups, and improving energy efficiency of community facilities to reduce ongoing costs.
A further €34,426 in current funding is available to community groups to assist with their energy and running costs, to help them continue their important work within the community. The scheme is designed to ensure local priorities are identified and met, so as to improve and enhance community facilities for all.
