Local Enhancement Programme

12:00am – 12:00am

Closing Date: 4.00 p.m. on Friday 7th March 2025.

The Local Enhancement Programme (LEP) provides funding to support community groups across Ireland.

The LEP is funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development (the Department) and administered by the Local Community Development Committees
(LCDCs) in each Local Authority area.

The Department provides funding to each Local Authority (LA) area and the LCDCs then administer this funding locally to ensure funding is targeted appropriately towards addressing disadvantage in the areas that need it most.

The Local Enhancement Programme will support groups, particularly in disadvantaged areas:

  • Groups will be able to use the Capital element of funding to carry out necessary repairs and improvements to their facilities, purchase equipment for e.g. such as
    tables and chairs, tools and signage, laptops and printers, lawnmowers, canopies and training equipment etc.
  • Groups will be able to use the Current element of funding to support their non-pay running costs for example energy costs/bills (electricity costs, refuse charges,
    heating charges), rental/lease costs, insurance bills.

This funding will help communities, community groups and committees, allowing them to continue to provide valuable services to the people in their area, and in the process strengthen the bonds that tie communities together.
