Youth groups urged to apply for PEACEPLUS funding

Youth groups and other bodies in the North West are being urged to apply for funding under the PEACEPLUS Youth Programme.

Over €47 million is available for projects across five schemes, with Thursday week, August 10th, the deadline for the Youth Programme. It is particularly
