Foróige is fully committed to continuing to meet the developmental needs of the young people of Castlebar and in particular those affected by the closure of the Youth Information Centre.
In a statement released this week, Foróige states: “We are currently exploring a number of youth work options for Castlebar, including a Foróige youth café, Foróige clubs and a youth drop-in service. We also intend to continue to support the local YouthBank, which is a partnership with the Irish Youth Foundation, through Castlebar Neighbourhood Youth Project. Foróige also wishes to make clear that there were no redundancies made pertaining to the closure of Castlebar Youth Information Centre.”
