The Community Enhancement Programme (CEP) provides capital funding to improve facilities for disadvantaged communities across Ireland.
The Community Enhancement Programme was put in place following a review, and subsequent amalgamation of the recast RAPID (Revitalising Areas by Planning, Investment and Development) programme and the Communities Facilities Schemes of 2017. A report of the review is available at the following link Review of Communities Facilities Scheme and RAPID.
You can view a list of projects funded under RAPID in 2017 and projects funded under the Communities Facilities Scheme at the following links: Communities Facilities Scheme Funded Projects and RAPID 2017
