The 2022 Community Support Fund was launched in November 2022 with funding of €10 million available. €100,000 of this funding was ring-fenced specifically to support Women’s Sheds.

Some of the projects set to benefit from this funding are as follows
- €2,000 Enniscorthy Community Allotments
- €1,050 Bunclody Bridge Club
- €2,000 Adamstown Community Centre
- €1,000 Ballycanew Men’s Shed
- €1,200 Carrig-on-Bannow Community Centre
- €1,100 Crossabeg Ballymurn LGFA
- €2,000 Kilmore Community Hall
The Community Support Fund is a once off fund provided by the Department of Rural and Community Development and administered by Local Community Development Committees, with support from the Local Authority, in each area.
