MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons

That this Area Committee commends Áras Chrónáin and Calls on SDCC to look at how they can financially support Áras Chrónáin friday morning social club for seniors which includes coffee/tea and a social and musical element. Attendees are from Clondalkin but also include people living in Nursing homes and outside of Clondalkin! We ask SDCC to link in with Áras Chrónáin on this excellent initiative!

REPORT:

Community Services have a long-standing relationship with Áras Chrónáin. We have provided capital funding to the facility in the past and we are currently in discussion regarding the rolling out of a number of cultural projects. The community development team is also delivering the South Dublin Age Friendly program and will engage with the Friday morning social club and explore ways to best support them with their initiative.
