Limerick youth group receives €250,000 Creative Ireland grant

An award‑winning Limerick‑based national youth organisation has been awarded €250,000 in multi‑year funding from Creative Ireland.

The grant will extend Narrative 4’s “Living Legends” programme for the period 2026‑2028. The scheme will involve more than 40 young people aged 14 to 17 from Southill and Garryowen in Limerick and the Shankill Road and Ardoyne areas of Belfast.

Funding will support residential trips and activities across the island, taking participants to culturally significant sites and facilitating collaborations with local artists and musicians.

The cross‑border project aims to deepen cultural exchange and provide creative opportunities for youth in both the Republic and Northern Ireland.
