Three Longford groups to receive support with energy bills
Three Longford groups are to receive support with energy bills under the second tranche of the Community and Voluntary Energy Support Scheme (CVESS).
Longford Women's Link, Granard Motte Community Enterprise CLG and Colmcille Community Centre CLG are set to receive €3,922, €2,201 and €901, respectively.
Minister for Rural and Community Development, Heather Humphreys TD, and Minister of State, Joe O’Brien TD, announced the second tranche of successful applicants under the €10 million CVESS last Friday.
Under the initiative, some 238 organisations from across the community and voluntary sector will receive a one-off contribution towards their increased energy bills. Payments will begin to issue to organisations immediately.
It was also confirmed that applications will be accepted until February 24, 2023, with other groups around the country encouraged to apply.
