town centre first - consultation

In December 2021 Minister for Rural and Community Development Heather Humphreys TD announced the granting of €100,000 to Strokestown as part of the Government's 'Town Centre First' programme.

The vision for Strokestown is to rejuvenate the town as a unique cultural, tourism and heritage destination through the further development of its physical, economic and social infrastructure. The realisation of this vision will be fostered through the development of the Town Centre First Plan which will create a pathway for the revitalisation and rejuvenation of Strokestown aiming, if harnessed and channelled appropriately, to unlock the towns abundant potential.

With investment in the right locations and at the right time, it is hoped that Strokestown can move towards establishing itself as a vibrant and distinctive destination which brings people and business closer together, underpinned by the strength of existing community spirit in the town.

Over coming weeks Strokestown Town Team is hosting online consultations with all the various groups, businesses, clubs and societies in Strokestown.

If you have not received an email from Town Team, please get in touch on strokestowntownteam@gmail.com to request the link.

For those not involved directly with any club, public consultation will be announced shortly once a date is confirmed.

It is vital that everyone has their say and the opportunity to put their point across for the development of the 'Town Centre First' plan that Strokestown were awarded earlier this year.
