Foulkstown Cemetery in Kilkenny
Kilkenny County Council has prepared a grant scheme to assist community groups/organisations in the management and maintenance of local graveyards and is now accepting applications for the Graveyard Grant Scheme 2026.
The local authority recognises and supports the enormous effort which voluntary groups around the county undertake to maintain and manage local graveyards.
These graveyards are very important elements of our local community and are valuable in terms of built, natural and cultural heritage. The Graveyard Grant Scheme 2026 aims to support community groups/organisations in the maintenance of graveyards and encourage best practice in graveyard management.
