This year 15 million euro is available to revitalise and regenerate rural towns and villages. The fund aims to support a wide range of projects nationwide. In this funding round, the focus is on tackling vacancy and dereliction and bringing additional footfall into the centre of towns.

It should be noted that farmer and artisan markets will be funded under the scheme.
