We were delighted to welcome Minister of State at the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, Marian Harkin, TD, to Youthreach Leitrim on Monday as funding was announced for the redevelopment of the future Leitrim College FET Campus and Youthreach Leitrim Centre in Mohill, Co. Leitrim.

Minister Harkin visited Youthreach Leitrim at its current location in Drumshanbo, where she met with learners and staff and heard first-hand about the impact the programme has had on their lives and educational journeys. The Minister then travelled to Mohill to view what will be redeveloped into the future Leitrim College FET Campus and Youthreach Leitrim Centre following the funding announcement.

The redevelopment will transform the former Vocational School, a site with a proud educational heritage, into a modern learning environment designed to support skills development, lifelong learning and educational progression for generations to come.

Thank you to Minister Harkin, our staff, learners and all those who joined us to mark this significant milestone for education in Leitrim and the surrounding region.
