The Dormant Accounts Fund in the Irish Republic is releasing another ‚€2 million
under the Economic and Social Disadvantage category for projects supporting community
based services for older people. The Fund is open to locally based organisations
that have experience of working with and delivering projects supporting older people.

The funding is particularly focusing on projects that will assist older people to
continue living in their own homes and in the community. To promote the new funding
initiative, the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs and the Department
of Health and Children has tasked the information agency, Pobal, to run a series
of information sessions throughout the country in October.

Applications and criteria are available from Pobal by phoning 01 2400700 or by downloading
from their site. The closing date for applications is the 16th November.
