Kildare Social Inclusion Week 2017

25th to 29th September.

The first Social Inclusion Week for County Kildare will take place from 25th to 29th September. 

This exciting new initiative is being coordinated by the County Kildare LEADER Partnership in association with the Social Inclusion Pillar of the Kildare Public Participation Network (PPN).
