Kilcummin Looking Good is assured of looking good over the coming months after being awarded a grant through the Communities Activity Fund 2021, from Kerry County Council and Department of Rural & Community Development.

The €800 awarded will ensure that the local area of Kilcummin will be maintained to the highest possible standard.

The Community Activities Fund was established to support community groups with their non-pay running and operating costs. Groups can use the funding to carry out necessary repairs and improvements to their facilities and to purchase equipment.

The Community Activities Fund was launched by the Minister for Rural and Community Development, Heather Humphreys TD, and Minister of State with responsibility for Community Development and Charities, Joe O’Brien TD with funding of €9 million announced to support community groups impacted by COVID-19 nationally.

The total allocation for Kerry was €284,817. Kilcummin Looking Good have also been successful in attaining a separate grant of €1300 under the Community Support Fund through the Killarney Municipal District / Kerry County Council.

This grant has been utilised to provide a wonderful life sized Snakes & Ladders "Board" to the KIlcummin Millennium Park and it will, no doubt provide endless hours of fun to the children of the local community.

Kilcummin Looking Good would like to thank Kerry County Council most sincerely for the awarding of these grants.
