Children in Listowel will benefit from upgrades to local playgrounds, said Fine Gael Councillor Aoife Kennelly.
Councillor Kennelly said the Capital Grant Scheme for Play and Recreation provides funding to local authorities to upgrade playgrounds or develop new playgrounds.
“I am delighted to see this funding of €20,000 for the playground that will benefit so many children in Listowel. Every child should have access to a safe and modern play area.”
“The benefits of outdoor play for children are well known – it’s good for their health, they can make new friends, it inspires the imagination and brings excitement into young lives. We want to see these upgrades so that our playgrounds are more accessible, inclusive, and enjoyable for all children.”
“I look forward to seeing the completed project in Listowel. I know this project will have a major impact on the vibrancy of our local community.”
“As part of this scheme councils had to consult with local children and young people to receive any funding, so children in Listowel are at the heart of this project and I hope families across North Kerry will avail of this upgraded play area.“
“This funding will provide state of the art play areas for all children here in Listowel, encouraging them to play in safe surroundings”, concluded Councillor Kennelly.
