The Community Climate Action Programme (CCAP) provides funding to support communities to take climate action at a local level with the objective of building low carbon, sustainable communities, which will, in turn contribute to the national climate and energy targets.

In anticipation of CCAP Round 2, the Community Climate Action Officer will hold public information sessions, at the following locations, to explain how the fund can work for your community and provide guidance on how to prepare an application.

To register your interest in attending one of these sessions, please email climateaction@wexfordcoco.ie
