A total of €20 million will be invested in new and ambitious community projects in towns and villages across Ireland under the 2023 Community Centres Investment Fund. For the first time, funding of at least €1 million will be invested in ‘shovel ready’ projects which are located in areas that currently lack community facilities.
The new fund builds on the highly successful 2022 initiative, which delivered an investment of over €45 million to renovate and upgrade over 850 projects the length and breadth of the country.
The Community Centres Investment Fund – New Builds Measure is for new build community centres with grant funding of at least €1 million available per project.
The deadline for the receipt of applications is 12 noon on 3 July 2023.
