Rural Services Thematic Programme Launched

18 May 2010

The Rural Network for Northern Ireland is organising a Rural Services Thematic Programme.

The aim of this Programme is to support the delivery and implementation of Measure 3.4 - Basic Services for the Rural Economy and Population and is targeted at those involved in Axis 3 delivery.

The Programme will commence with a preliminary seminar to set the context for the Programme and will include key speakers on rural access to services. This seminar will then be followed up by a series of best practice visits over the coming months.

The initial seminar will take place on 16th June 2010 from 12.30pm - 4.30pm in Kesh Community Centre, Mantlin Road, Kesh, Co. Fermanagh.

For further information please contact Joyce McMullan at the Rural Network for Northern Ireland.
