In February this year, Minister Ryan announced a new Community Climate Action Programme, aimed at supporting projects and initiatives by local communities.

To facilitate community climate action through education, capacity building and learning by doing, the Government was going to make funding available to local County Councils.

Most of those Councils have now announced the mechanisms by which local groups can apply for this new fund. 

In the table below, you can find each County’s draft Climate Action Plan, and a link to their Community Climate Action funding scheme.
