Almost one hundred businesses were supported by Kildare County Council’s Shop Front Improvement scheme last year.
One of them is Celbridge hairdressing salon owner, Tara Feeney.
The council confirmed that in 2020, despite challenges posed by the Covid 19 pandemic, it approved 93 applications, financially supporting almost 100 Kildare businesses. Applications for the 2021 scheme open in March.
One of those who used the scheme was Tara Feeney, who runs Liffey Barbers on Main Street in Celbridge.
Taking advantage of a Covid 19 imposed closure, she changed her shop front window in 2020 and it now has an impressive grey colour, in place of the former red dominant colour. “I am delighted by the work,” said Clane resident Tara, who reminded us that the council grant will not pay the full cost of the work.
