Galway Simon gets funding boost from HFA

The Housing Finance Agency (HFA ) has announced funding of €250,000 to support Approved Housing Bodies and Local Authorities in the delivery of community-enhancing initiatives and facilities. Thirteen initiatives across 11 different counties were chosen.

In Galway, funding has been awarded to Galway Simon to develop an outdoor community café space, which will include awning to weatherproof the space, seating and planters.

The HFA, which provides financing to support the delivery of social and affordable housing, awards community project funding to customers each year through its Social Investment Fund. The aim of the fund is to support initiatives that will complement the communities in which HFA-financed homes are built.

Announcing the funding awards, Housing Finance Agency CEO, Barry O’Leary, said they had great interest in our Social Investment Fund this year, with a range of creative and well-thought-out applications coming from customers across the country.

“The HFA is committed to supporting customers, not just in the delivery of housing, but also in the enhancement of communities around those homes with this fund. I look forward to seeing positive impacts these latest projects delivery for local residents,” he said.
