Preparatory work in relation to creating a website an ONLINE registration form for community and voluntary groups and organisations in the county, is now complete.
Advertisements have been placed in local papers and in www.kildarecoco.ie, facebook and twitter.
This is available at http://www.kildareppn.ie and we encourage any recognised local groups who work in the areas of community and voluntary, social inclusion and environmental to register ONLINE. The website has all the detailed information and a Tab for Registration.
As part of the reform under Local Government Reform Act 2014, local authorities are required to establish Public Partnership Networks (PPN) in each local authority area. Membership is open to all community and voluntary groups and organisations active in Co Kildare.
The PPN will be the main link through which the Council will connect with the local Community/Voluntary, Social Inclusion and Environmental sectors.
All groups and organisations who currently get supports from the Council or who are on the Council various records through Sports Partnership, Heritage grants, Community Grants, or Co Kildare Community & Voluntary Forum are being informed over the coming days about this opportunity to be part of the County Kildare Public participation Network (PPN). Letters will issue over coming week.
Again if anyone is in contact with a local voluntary group, appreciate if you would mention the PPN and ask them to register.
Contact details on this are 045/980700 and kildareppn@gmail.com
