​Voluntary and community organisations can apply for funding from my Department under the Sports Capital Programme. Details of the scheme and the organisations that have received funding over the years in question are available on the Department's website - .

My Department also provides grants to some organisations such as the Community Rescue Boats, Irish Cave Rescue and Mountain Rescue Ireland which includes various regional mountain rescue teams, all of which are run on a voluntary basis.
