Since its launch in 1991, The LEADER Programme has helped rural communities across the European Union to actively engage and to direct the local development of their area.
The LEADER Programme accepts applications based on projects which improve:
- rural tourism
- enterprise development
- broadband
- basic services targeted at hard-to-reach communities
- rural youth
- protection and sustainable use of water resources
- local biodiversity
- renewable energy
Mayo Local Community Development Committee (LCDC) wants to hear your ideas and priorities for the new LEADER Local Development Strategy for County Mayo.
The feedback from the consultation meetings will provide the direction for the type of projects that will be prioritised under the new programme, therefore your input to the process is critical.
We are encouraging all members of the Community to take part.
A consultation meeting will take place in Charlestown Arts Centre on Tuesday, 6th May at 7pm.
All are welcome to attend this meeting.
