SUMMER PROJECTS 2019
Summer projects are aimed at providing a supervised programme of recreational and educational activities for young people over a consecutive number of weeks during the summer period. Emphasis is placed on community involvement and the development of resources and groups within localities. A wide range of activities are encouraged such as arts & crafts, sports, educational trips, drama, films, games etc. The use of available community facilities (schools, community centres, halls, open spaces) is also encouraged and facilitated where possible.
The Council assists Summer Projects in the County area through direct grant support, organised activities, staff support and assistance, while Crosscare provides insurance cover. It should be noted that where appropriate the necessary insurance cost will be deducted from the grant provided by the Council and paid directly to Crosscare.
In 2019, it is estimated that the grant supports outlined below will contribute towards approximately 6,000 young people in the County participating in summer projects. The 2019 summer project allocations are as follows:
