Letterkenny Youth and Family Service (LYFS) are proud to announce a new Community Mapping project in Letterkenny.
Letterkenny Active Mapping Project (LAMP) will highlight and map the resources and services available in Letterkenny.
The project aims to put together a vibrant, dynamic, creative group of young people who are not in employment, education or training, who want to have a positive contribution in their community and are aged between 16-30 yrs. No previous skills or experience necessary.
LYFS were awarded the funding after successfully completing a rigorous selection process. Only three groups in Ireland have been selected to deliver this project the others being in Dublin and Limerick, all funded by The Community Foundation for Ireland.
This youth led project will allow the group, to develop, design and distribute a fully usable tool that represents the services and resources available in their community.
