Over the last 25 years the LEADER (Rural Development) Programme in County Kildare has worked alongside communities and individuals with funding, supports and resources to assist in the development of stronger, better connected, more resilient and prosperous communities.

In the last 10 years alone, LEADER has supported projects and initiatives in the areas of enterprise, farm diversification, tourism, community facilities, greater social inclusion, or climate action.

 

The Local Development Strategy has been developed and the New CAP Strategic Plan – 2023-2027 (LEADER) Programme is due to commence shortly.
