Applications for Indaver grants now available

The Indaver Community Grant Scheme for 2023 is now open and completed application forms must be in by 17th February next.

Applications are open to groups and clubs in the Duleek, Donore and Bellewstown areas. Cllr Stephen McKee has welcomed the launch of the new scheme for 2023.

"Under the planning conditions of Indaver, a donation is made to the local community for every tonne that is accepted into the waste-to-energy facility," he stated. The fund is managed by the Community Liaison Committee and the fund is designed to provide financial assistance to local community-based clubs and voluntary organisations for the development of community projects and works in the locality.

"So many very worthwhile projects have been carried out with significant funding coming from the scheme.

The new Duleek Bellewstown Community Facility is one such example of a brilliant project that has come to fruition. Our local sports clubs such as St Mary’s Donore, St Colmcille’s and Duleek AFC are also clubs that have benefited from the scheme to undertake important works.’
