Community Development

The project assists the development of groups across Armagh City and District area, through committee based training, needs analysis, and community surveys.

Programmes based at REACT are open to all groups and individuals in the area, looking at healthy eating and physical activity programmes, work with 50+ groups, capacity building and addressing issues in the local community.  There is a wide variety of programmes from seasonal craft workshops and Cook It! classes to yoga classes and walking club.  Our 50+ group go on various trips throughout the year, and in the past have visited places such as Kilmainham jail in Dublin, Battle of the Boyne visitor centre and Mary Catherine's Cottage.

Any groups seeking funding can use our Grant Tracker service and get advice and information on completing application forms. There are plenty of opportunities for volunteers to get involved, so please get in touch.

REACT publish a community newsletter quarterly. The newsletter contains information of upcoming programmes and events.  It also gives you a chance to showcase your group, advertise events and have your say, view copies of it on our website under resources and then downloads.
