Community Recognition Fund 2024

Galway City Council, through the Galway City Local Community Development Committee (LCDC), invites local community groups and clubs on the East Side of Galway City to apply for capital funding under the Community Recognition Fund 2024.

The aim is to support the development of community infrastructure and facilities for the entire community in recognition of the contribution being made by communities in welcoming and hosting significant numbers of arrivals from Ukraine and other countries. 

The minimum grant aid per individual project is €50,000, with a maximum potential grant of €300,000 applying. Projects to be funded will be capital in nature and be capable of being delivered over the course of 2025 and 2026. Projects can include:

  • Development or refurbishment of community or cultural facilities, local club and sports facilities, school/parish facilities
  • the purchase of equipment for clubs, festivals, community events and organisations
  • transport infrastructure, such as community vehicles.

The closing date for online applications is Friday, 29th November 2024 at 4.00pm.
