A growing network and plenty of opportunities to get involved!
This week’s E-Bulletin celebrates the continued growth of Cork County PPN with a warm welcome to several new member groups, showing the strength and diversity of community activity across the county.

We’re highlighting opportunities for organisations to strengthen their leadership and governance, including a chance to connect with potential board and committee members at an upcoming BoardMatch recruitment event. There’s also a renewed call for groups to engage with our Linkage Groups, which play an important role in bringing community voices into local policy discussions.

As always, there are a range of funding opportunities to explore — supporting community awareness projects, arts and music initiatives, grassroots equality work, and local community improvement efforts.

Finally, we’re sharing two national surveys looking at volunteer participation and public perspectives on water quality in Ireland, offering members another chance to contribute to research and future policy development.

Another positive edition — full of ways to connect, participate, and strengthen community life across Cork County.
