Eight groups in Carlow are to share in a €371,890 allocation under the Community Climate Action Fund.
We told earlier in the week of the half a million euro spend for Kilkenny.
Carlow County Council says they had had twenty submissions for phase one of the fund which supports those who are developing a response to climate action.
Áine Byrne, Community Climate Action Officer with the local authority says they were “Delighted with the response from community groups to the fund” and added that “Many of the applicants which didn’t succeed this time have strong project proposals which they can build on and improve for future funding calls.”
Chief Executive, Coilín O’Reilly said, “Carlow County Council is delighted to invest funds within these eight local projects. The money will support local communities future proof local infrastructure. Congratulations to all the successful projects.”
