Senator Chambers confirmed the funding
Funding of €67,500 has been confirmed for Mayo's Local Sports Partnership under the Participation Nation Outdoor Fund.
Mayo general election candidate Lisa Chambers confirmed this allocation under a fund designed to support the installation of barrier-free outdoor sport infrastructure for public use in local community settings.
Under the fund, a total of €2.26 million has been allocated to 30 local sports partnerships across the country to support the purchase and installation of permanent sport infrastructure that can be placed on public land for community use.
The Fianna Fáil senator is ‘delighted’ to welcome this latest round of funding.
"The funding will be used for equipment in Ballina Town Park, Castlebar Town Park, Greenway Activity Park Westport and Friary Grounds Ballyhaunis.
"Promoting participation in sport in the community is hugely important, and I am glad that this fund focuses on the grassroots of our communities to boost our participation levels,” she continued.
Senator Chambers concluded: “I am confident that it will complement the tremendous community good that is already delivered under both the Community Sport Facilities Fund and the Large Scale Sport Infrastructure Fund."
