  • Pds-Family-Bulletin-Sept-2020
    Cork Kerry Community Healthcare Progressing Disability Services (PDS) for Children & Young People (0-18 Years) FAMILY BULLETIN September 2020 The ‘Progressing Services for Children and Young People’ Programme aims to achieve a national unified approach to delivering children’s disability health services. The central focus of this programme is to provide a clear pathway to services regardless of where a child lives, goes to school, or the nature of their disability or delay. At present there are some very good services for children with disabilities and their families but also some large gaps. There may be a service for children with a physical disability in a locality, but none for children with an intellectual disability. Some children and their families have little or no access to services. We need a fairer way to provide services for children with disabilities Access to services should be based on a child’s needs rather than just on their diagnosis Children and families should have services available wherever they live Some children may have their needs supported by their local Primary Care services. A Children’s Disability Network Team will support children with more complex needs in a defined geographic area, regardless of the nature of their disability. A national programme called ‘Progressing Disability Services for Children & Young People’ is changing the way services are provided across the country to make it equitable and consistent for all. This is the first in a series of regular bulletins, which will keep you informed of the HSE’s National Programme Progressing Disability Services for Children and Young People, changes that will occur within children’s disability services in the Cork area and how this might impact you and your child.

  • 4.1.2 Carrigaline the Following Was Summarised from Various Publications and from Infonnation At
    Archaeological & Architectuxal Heritage Impact Assessment ... __._. __. .__ ._ _ _ _. __. .. .__.__. _ ._.__.__ c;ork~?_~~~!i~.~?.~_~_r.~_aJre..~~e.~.:. 4.1.2 Carrigaline The following was summarised from various publications and from infonnation at http://wzmu.carrigaline.ie!pages/histon{.html. Carrigaline is situated in a limestone region in the Owenabue Valley 7 miles south of Cork City and is at the head of the Owenabue River and Estuary which forms part of Corks Lower Harbour. Carrigaline is geographically located 12 Kms south of Cork City, at the mouth of the Owenabue River and at the Head of the Owenabue Estuary which forms part of Cork Harbour. The Locality lies within the Barony of Kerrycurrihy a name derived from the Ciarraige Cuircha, a clan who occupied the area prior to 1000AD. It was a very important Barony in early Norman Times. The landscape is dominated by the River and Estuary and gently rolling hills to the North and South of the Town. For those who live in the locality Carrigaline is still referred to as the village. In so doing a lot is revealed about the nature of the people and the locality. It is still viewed as a small manageable friendly community where people are in first name terms with each other and have a strong sense of identity with the locality. This despite the fact that the population has grown rapidly to approx. 15,000 in recent years. This rapid growth is not unique within the country however it is rare to find such development while still retaining the sense of identity and belonging to an area.

  • My Town, My Plan Community Training Programme
    My Town, My Plan Community Training Programme September 2019 - May 2020 Idea’s Summaries The Hincks Centre for Entrepreneurship Excellence, part of the School of Business at Cork Institute of Technology (CIT) designed and delivered the programme which was funded through SECAD as part of the LEADER Programme. Carrigaline Ideas 1. Sustainable Travel Focus (The 15-minute town) This aims to get the citizens of Ireland’s quickest growing and most car dependant towns, out of their cars and onto the footpaths and safe cycling paths of the future by recognising, that they can reach most places in Carrigaline in less than 15 minutes by foot or on a bike. It is a series of small scale projects that add up to a long term goal of modal change, which will seamlessly marry with the forthcoming Carrigaline Public Realm plan and Carrigaline Area Transport Plan, as well as existing policy documents like the Cork Metropolitan Area Transport Strategy (CMATS) and Cork Metro Area Cycle Plan. 2. Arts and Culture Centre (The Vibrant Town) This vision will breathe new life into the heart of Carrigaline, by repurposing an existing building, ripe for renovation, into a new focal point for the community. With a town hall model, a mixed-use office (Cork County Council) and flexible meeting spaces; as well as a fully equipped theatrical, exhibition and heritage space. Carrigaline is the biggest county town in the biggest county in Ireland. Our town is the capital of the Carrigaline Municipal District and needs a Town Hall. To assist in reinvigorating the town centre and local pride of place, this space will also include a coffee shop/bar and a new local/tourist information centre, which will help showcase local produce, crafts and amenities to locals and tourists alike.

  • Ireland 2040 Our Plan – National Planning Framework
    Submission on: Ireland 2040 Our Plan – National Planning Framework Submission from: Professor Edmond Byrne Chair of Process & Chemical Engineering Dept. of Process & Chemical Engineering School of Engineering University College Cork Below are some suggestions relating to the headings presented in the discussion paper. 1. Health and Well-Being Some proposed Key priorities: Require (as part of planning regulations, by developers) the construction of footpaths (of a certain buggy bearing width) leading to and from all new housing and other developments linking with main urban/town/village footpath networks. Same as above with respect to cycle lanes or roads (/markings) facilitating cyclists. Incorporation of substantial green areas as part of all new developments (incorporate into planning process) Development of off road cycleway and walking pathways across our towns, cities and villages and across the countryside for commuting and recreational purposes. Introduce regulations to require passive housing standards for all new builds, including solar PV, insulation, etc. Actively develop and invest in public green spaces in our existing cities and towns, including public parks, public sports facilities, etc. Actively develop and invest in public amenities such as public libraries, art galleries, parks, recreational zones, etc. Develop covered cycle lanes/ways, particularly in busy urban commuter areas to a) facilitate a more pleasant commute for cyclists and encourage more cyclists to commute, especially in inclement weather and b) to help overcome the paradox that as more extreme weather events become more common (torrential rains, storms, etc.), such events also encourage commuters, etc. to leave the bike at home and travel instead by car.
