The Minister for Rural and Community Development, Heather Humphreys TD, announced €8.7 million in funding for community and sports facilities nationwide under the 2024 CLÁR programme.
As part of the initiative, grants of up to €50,000 will be provided to support the renovation and upgrade of community centres, parish halls, GAA clubhouses, youth facilities and more.
There will be a big focus on supporting the development of outdoor projects such as playgrounds, sensory gardens, astroturf pitches, walking tracks, skateparks and community allotments.
A recent feature of the CLÁR Programme is the investment in upgrades and improvements to spectator stands at local GAA and sports clubs.
Funding is being extended to support Meals on Wheels organisations, with support once again being provided to deliver community transport such as mobility and cancer care vehicles.
Projects on our offshore island communities will once again be supported under the initiative.
