A Cavan-Monaghan TD has welcomed the announcement of the 2025 CLÁR Programme, which has an €11 million budget to support rural communities.
The programme provides crucial funding for projects such as playgrounds, sporting infrastructure, and transport for the elderly.
Fianna Fáil's Brendan Smith described it as a vital investment, aimed at supporting a wide range of essential local initiatives.
Deputy Smith says the funding will help sustain and grow rural communities, improving facilities for people of all ages.
Eligible groups in Cavan and Monaghan are encouraged to apply.
