Waterford City & County Council have launched the Communities Facilities Scheme 2017. Closing date for applications is Friday 30th June 2017.
The Communities Facilities Scheme is targeted at disadvantaged urban and rural areas, but not exclusively so. It will fund projects that seek to enhance communities, address disadvantage and improve social cohesion at a local level. This Scheme offers community groups access to capital funding in order to kick-start, advance or complete their projects. The Scheme seeks to address some of the difficulties local community groups face in terms of accessing small scale levels of funding to match their own fundraising efforts. The Scheme will offer grants up to a maximum of €1,000 per project.
