The funding announced to education schemes in Tipperary is aimed at tackling some of the digital inequality highlighted by online and remote learning.

It’s hoped that the €150,000 allocated to Tipperary will support access for disadvantaged adults to community education

The largest beneficiary in the county is Knockanrawley Resource Centre in Tipp Town, where just over €25,000 is going towards a project titled ‘Bridging Tipp Towns Digital Divide’.

€15,000 has been allocated for Killoscully Development Association, and €10,000 for Rossmore Community Centre and Thurles Community Training Centre (CTC).

The funding for a total of 29 Tipperary projects have been warmly welcomed by independent TD Michael Lowry and Fine Gael Senator Garret Ahearn.
