Wexford Local Development & Sports Active Wexford hosted a Sports Capital Programme Guidance workshop on the evening of Wednesday, January 20th.

The workshop, which was held over Zoom, aimed to provide information and guidance to clubs and groups considering submitting an application to the 2021 Sports Capital Programme.

Clubs and community groups from across Co Wexford attended as did representatives from Clann Credo Social Finance and Community Finance Ireland who were on hand with advice regarding the financing of projects.

The deadline for registration on the online portal (with tax registration number) is February 15th 2021 and the deadline for final submission of the applications via the portal has been extended to Monday, March 1st at 5pm; but a key piece of advice from the workshop was to not leave the application until the last minute as technology can & often does go wrong just when you need it most.

We’ve put together a few resources that may be useful for the participants & for those who couldn’t join us at the workshop.
