There is a buzz of activity here each day of the week with all the groups, and a very important place in the Centre is the Coffee Dock, where it is said the best scones in Ireland are baked – open from 9.30am to 2.30pm daily. The centre is in great shape and it is hoped that this will continue for the years ahead. Sunday 8th March, 2020 was a joyous occasion – the 20th anniversary of the Iona Pastoral Centre. A venue providing for meetings, activities and courses like Healing, Parenting, History, Parish Ministry and Spirituality; a place of welcome. The Iona Pastoral Centre moved from a prefabricated building into a fine purpose-built centre 20 years ago. There were a number of successful years in the pre-fab but this was in poor condition and deteriorating rapidly. The Knocklyon community was growing and a larger facility was needed. In came designers Fitzgerald Kavanagh Associates who designed the lovely centre we have today – The Iona Pastoral Centre. It is satisfying to note that some of the groups who were in place from the start are still using the centre today, such as the HSE Mother and Baby Clinic, the History Society and Yoga. There are now many more groups on the books, both fee-paying and parish groups, which include Bridge, GROW Mental Health Movement, Knitter’s Corner, Slimming World, The Parish Forum, SVP, the Eucharistic Ministers and Ministers of the Word meetings, to name but a few. The Iona Centre are very pleased that the Men’s Shed and the Women’s Group, which started from the Centre in 2019, are now well established. The Iona Pastoral Centre has been a great success over the years thanks to committed managers such as 3 Charity Cycle by the Raglan Rollers Mia, Sarah and Ella at the launch The Raglan Rollers are holding a charity cycle on 23rd character full of energy and action.

  • Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q3 2019
    Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q3 2019 December 2019 Rebuilding Ireland - Action Plan for Housing and Homelessness Quarter 3 of 2019: Social Housing Construction Status Report Rebuilding Ireland: Social Housing Targets Under Rebuilding Ireland, the Government has committed more than €6 billion to support the accelerated delivery of over 138,000 additional social housing homes to be delivered by end 2021. This will include 83,760 HAP homes, 3,800 RAS homes and over 50,000 new homes, broken down as follows: Build: 33,617; Acquisition: 6,830; Leasing: 10,036. It should be noted that, in the context of the review of Rebuilding Ireland and the refocussing of the social housing delivery programme to direct build, the number of newly constructed and built homes to be delivered by 2021 has increased significantly with overall delivery increasing from 47,000 new homes to over 50,000. This has also resulted in the rebalancing of delivery under the construction programme from 26,000 to 33,617 with acquisition targets moving from 11,000 to 6,830. It is positive to see in the latest Construction Status Report that 6,499 social homes are currently onsite. The delivery of these homes along with the additional 8,050 homes in the pipeline will substantially aid the continued reduction in the number of households on social housing waiting lists. These numbers continue to decline with a 5% reduction of households on the waiting lists between 2018 and 2019 and a 25% reduction since 2016. This progress has been possible due to the strong delivery under Rebuilding Ireland with 90,011 households supported up to end of Q3 2019 since Rebuilding Ireland in 2016.

  • Tallaght to Templeogue Cycle Track Scheme
    Dublin Cycling Campaign PO Box 10295, Dublin 3 [email protected] www.dublincycling.ie A member of Cyclist.ie – A member of The Senior Executive Officer, Roads and Water Services, South Dublin County Council, County Hall, Town Centre, Dublin 24. 7th February 2014 Submission from the Dublin Cycling Campaign on the proposed Tallaght to Templeogue Cycle Track Scheme General Dublin Cycling Campaign (DCC) welcomes this overall scheme, which provides for a significant improvement in the provision for cyclists and pedestrians and also provides for improved design at some bus stops. We also welcome that the design is in general line with the recent Design Manual for Urban Roads and Streets (DMURS) and that it liberally uses the recommendations of the National Cycle Manual (NCM). We commend South Dublin CC on the general quality of the Part 8 consultation drawings, which greatly assist in assessing the proposed scheme. We welcome the proposed 30 kph speed limit in Tallaght Village but recommend that it should be extended as far as the Greenhills Road junction and that the section of the Old Bawn Road from Main Street to the N81 junction should be included in the 30 kph zone. We recommend that the design is complemented by the installation of directional signage to encourage the use of the cycle paths as many cyclists and potential cyclists are unaware of cycle routes in their area. The many roundabouts in the area are challenging and dangerous for cyclists. Special attention needs to be given to these to ensure that cyclists can safely use them or alternative junction designs need to be put in place.
