The Centre was established in 2003 and is funded by the Family Support Agency under the Department of Children and Youth Affairs. We offer a family support service delivered through the ethos of Community Development. The Centre provides a focal point for the community and works towards building the capacity of local people to participate fully in society and to improve people’s quality of life by promoting local awareness, providing information, developing community initiatives and offering support. The Centre works to a 3 year Work Plan, developed in consultation with the Community, Voluntary & Statutory Sector.
