This sub-theme focuses on improving access to basic services for people living in rural and remote areas and groups who are at risk of social exclusion, including hard to reach and new communities. 
In some cases, it might involve the introduction of a new service or the re-introduction of a previously withdrawn service under the following categories:

 community
 training
 social/cultural
 recreation

​

In summary, LEADER funding serves as a vital resource for projects that aim to bridge gaps, create opportunities, and improve the quality of life for individuals in rural and remote areas. By focusing on community, training, social/cultural, and recreation, LEADER funding supports strive to make a lasting impact on the well-being and inclusivity of diverse communities across the region.

​

Let's build a future where every individual, regardless of their location, has access to the essential services they need to thrive.
