Over €267,000 has been announced to support local community groups reopen.
The Community Enhancement Programme will provide small grants to assist in community halls, men sheds and youth centres welcoming people back after Covid-19 restrictions.
Almost €135,000 has been announced for projects in Cavan, with €132,000 for Monaghan groups.
The individual grants will range from a few hundred euro up to €10,000, and will be administered by the LCDC in each county.
Announcing the funding this morning, Minister Heather Humphreys said the grants might be small, but " will go a long way in helping thousands of great community organisations and clubs"
