As part of the Braidwater Group’s support for local communities, charities and sporting organisations operating within a three-mile radius of our new development, The Cashel in Derry/Londonderry, are invited to apply for funding.

The Cashel aims to establish a dynamic urban community with over 2,000 new homes, a school, communal amenities, green spaces, retail outlets, and essential services. Phase one of the project, approved by Derry City and Strabane District Council in December 2022, marks a significant investment in the northwest, with an overall 8% increase in local households upon full completion.

To apply
Please send a 750-word document and a relevant image detailing your charity or organisation’s activities and how the funds will benefit the community. 

The selection process will look at creative and impactful proposals that maximise community benefit. Note that funding may be distributed among multiple recipients at the discretion of the Braidwater Group committee overseeing this initiative.

Darren Farnan, marketing manager for the Braidwater Group stated why the initiative was important to the company:

‘’For over 50 years, the Braidwater Group has been synonymous with quality, style, and value in home building, committed not just to building homes but to enhancing lives across Northern Ireland.

As part of our ongoing charitable programme, we’re delighted to invite local community groups to apply for essential funding in celebration of the start of construction at Cashel.”
