Clann Credo - the Social Investment Fund, is the leading provider of Social Finance to community based projects in Ireland, and has offices in Dublin, Cork and Mayo. It is a Not-for-Profit organisation with charitable status.

Our aims are:

To develop Tinahely and the south Wicklow region by providing a programme of arts events that both satisfy and challenge local needs and tastes; through visual art exhibitions, touring professional theatre and local amateur theatre, musical concerts of all types, film showings, childen's and young people's drama classes, and other classes in the arts.

To make all of the above accessible to all segments of society.

The aims of our project are to acquire the Muings Lace School (Barnatra, Ballina, Co. Mayo) from Udaras na Gaeltachta, to restore, adapt and extend the existing premises for the purpose of a small folk museum/heritage centre with a community facility.

The North Antrim Community Network had its origins in the late 1980's with the work of the Rural Action Project. After reorganisation in 1990 and 1995, when sections of Moyle, Ballymena and Larne Council areas joined the Association, it is now a network organisation representing all nineteen development groups of a wider geographical area. This encompasses local communities of almost 10,000 people from Ballycarry to Broughshane to Bushmills and it is in the process of researching a change of name to reflect the now further reaching branches of the Association.
