A funding solution has been found for a disability programme which is run by three Tipperary community organisations.
Fine Gael Senator Garret Ahearn has welcomed the news that the Ability Programme is to be extended beyond its original June 2021 closure date.
The programme works with 15 to 29 year-olds with disabilities to help them develop necessary skills to enter the workforce.
The extension will come as good news to St. Cronan’s in Nenagh, Youthwork Ireland Tipperary and Knockanrawley Resource Centre in Tipp Town.
Senator Ahearn says the extension is a welcome boost:
