Galway Bay fm newsroom - €100,000 in funding has been granted to the Community Sports Facility in Belclare.
The LEADER funding will go towards enhancement works at the facility which include the replacement of the astro-turf and football nets, the installation of LED energy-saving lights, and the re-surfacing of the carpark.
Outdoor exercise equipment will also be installed as well as additional equipment for the playground to help develop mobility in young children.
