Great to meet up with the staff in Triest Press Printing in Roscommon Town this afternoon where they hosted an event as part of Social Inclusion Week. Always a warm welcome and great to hear they are very busy!
I was delighted to welcome students from Clooneyquinn Killina N.S., Tulsk to Leinster House yesterday, after they had a very exciting morning in Microsoft Ireland!
This morning, I raised priorities for investment in our rural areas with Minister for Rural and Community Development, Michael Ring T.D.
I continue to work very closely with Minister Ring to ensure that we can secure the greatest possible investment for communities across Roscommon and Galway through schemes such as Town and Village Scheme; LEADER; Local Improvement Scheme; Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme and Rural Regeneration Fund.
Please share!
A reminder that applications for the Sports Capital Programme close this Friday, October 19th at 5pm. Many clubs and organisations have benefitted from this funding in the past, with over €1 million being delivered in the previous round of funding.
I would encourage all eligible groups to apply at www.sportscapitalprogramme.ie
An additional €2 million provided nationally for the Walks Scheme in Budget 2019, will benefit the Beara-Breifne Way, walking/cycling route from Co. Cork to Co. Cavan through east Galway and Roscommon, which is a fantastic new tourism product for this region.
Work is ongoing at present to progress the walkway locally. I will be working closely with Minister Michael Ring to ensure that the Beara Breifne Way can benefit fully from this additional funding to support landowners in this region.
