Extension Complete At Dublin Community Centre

A community centre in the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council area of Dublin has been boosted with a new extension.

The extension to Shanganagh Park House was officially opened on Wednesday, 11 March.

Leas Chathaoirleach, Cllr Deirdre Donnelly visited the site to unveil the Caroline Mc Dermott Room, which will provide additional space and allow for Shanganagh Park House to increase the services provided. It is named after Caroline Mc Dermott, who lived in the Rathsallagh area for over 40 years and was a leading member of the community and instrumental in developing and managing the many activities and services which are provided from Shanganagh Park House.


This single-storey extension was funded by Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, partially provided from the Community Gain element of the upgrade of Shanganagh Bray Wastewater Treatment Plant.

The Caroline Mc Dermott Room will provide increased space at Shanganagh Park House to meet the needs of the local community, increasing the wellbeing of the Shanganagh / Rathsallagh community through supporting community engagement, volunteerism and active citizenship with particular emphasis on providing services for the local youth population.
