West Limerick and North Kerry
Through our Tournafulla, Rathcahill, Dromada, and Athea wind farms in West Limerick, and Lenamore Wind Farm in North Kerry we make almost €250,000 per year available for community projects.
"Tournafulla Sustainable Living’s aim is to keep our community and our area alive and viable. We have done much to accomplish this in the past, thanks to SSE Renewables community funding. This year’s funding will be used to install solar panels to light up the shed and polytunnel areas and assist with a water pump system to create a safe environment for people to work, walk and grow produce in the Community Development Living garden behind the Community Hall"
Helen Broderick Chairperson Tournafulla Sustainable Living Community
