📢 Community Notice: Playground Refurbishment Works 📢
We are delighted to share that works will soon begin on our community playground to help create a safer, brighter, and more inclusive space for local children and families.

🛠️ Playground Closure Notice
The playground will be closed from June 15th while works are carried out. We expect the refurbishment to take approximately three to four weeks, with the playground reopening as soon as works are completed. Please bear in mind construction times can vary due to weather.

We understand the temporary closure may cause some inconvenience and we greatly appreciate everyone’s patience and support while these important works are underway.

We look forward to welcoming the community back to an improved playground very soon. Updates will be shared on our social media channels throughout the project.

As the members of the Playground Committee we couldn’t be happier we are now at the stage for work to begin. This has been a long work in progress and during this time the current playground has deteriorated significantly. The much needed upgrades will have a huge beneficial impact to all users of the playground creating a safer, modern and more inclusive space.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. 🌳👧🛝👦

A huge thank you to for their very generous donation of €1000 towards the refurbishment of Carrigaline Playground! 🎉
Support like this makes a real difference and helps us continue improving this much-loved community space for children and families in Carrigaline.
We truly appreciate Glenveagh Homes’ support of our community and their commitment to helping local projects like this thrive. 💚

A little update from our committee. Above are the final drawings for the playground refurbishment which we received from our contractors Browne Brothers. There will be some minor changes to placement of equipment but this gives an idea of what’s to come.

Contracts have been signed this week which allows our contractor to order the equipment. There is a ten week lead time on the arrival of equipment once it is ordered. The playground will then be closed for 3 weeks while the equipment is installed.

We hope to have this playground built before the summer holidays. Wet weather has caused delays to many building sites of recent months so this does push back all projects but we are pushing to have construction take place asap after the delivery of stock 🛝

We are absolutely thrilled to share more good news with the community.

We have our first PLATINUM SPONSOR ✨️

Stephen McCarthy, Astra Construction, has very kindly sponsored the whole of Phase Two of our playground refurbishment costs and have donated a whopping €75,000 😆.

We are delighted to have received such a generous sum of money and this will ensure we can achieve our goals.

Stephen McCarthy firmly believes it is important to invest in the future of children’s physical and mental well being. Astra Construction Services sponsor many other organisations in our community and we are very grateful to be added to that list 🙌

A huge thank you 👏 to Stephen as this substantial some of money brings us to the final stages of our project.

Our pot currently stands at €300,000 💥 which means we are now in a position to move forward with the refurbishment and can fully complete phase 1 and 2.

We aim to order equipment in the coming weeks with work to commence in Spring 2026 🌸.

We will continue to try to secure further sponsorship to include phase 3 and deliver a wonderful playground for our community 🛝

Keep watching for further updates 👀

🌟 BIG NEWS FOR OUR COMMUNITY 🌟 just in time for Christmas 🎄.....
The Carrigaline Playground Committee has been awarded €100,000 in funding towards Carrigaline playground refurbishment. South Cork LCDC approved the project funding under the LEADER Rural Development Programme 2023–2027, supported by SECAD Partnership CLG from LEADER 💥. This is the grant we have been working on in the background for the last year. We managed to secure the maximum amount we could have been awarded and we are delighted to be able to share with the Carrigaline Community that all our hard work has paid off. This is a pivotal moment in our journey to refurbish the playground 🛝.

This brings our current funding to approx €225,000❗️

This means we can complete phase 1 of the refurbishment which is €200,000.

We went to tender several weeks back and Browne Brothers have been awarded the contract 👏

Phase 2&3 will be approx €125,000 so we still have a little to go which we are busy working on in the background. We hope to have news on this early next year 🤞.

All going well all phases will be completed simultaneously and we are aiming for works to commence early spring 🌸

Exciting things are coming & again we thank the community for all your support in getting our children the playground they deserve 💪🏼
