Current Projects

RAPID Community Network

The RAPID community Network online is funded by the PEACE III project and aims to provide a virtual space where rural dwellers in the rural Derry City Council area can interact online and where they can learn about other community cultures while promoting their own communities.

The six communities involved in The PEACE III project also wanted to create a space within the website where they could promote their communities during the  'City of Culture 2013' programme.

The network is made up of six main community organisations:

  • Claudy Rural Development

  • Learmount Community Development Group

  • Lettershandoney Community Development Group

  • Eglinton Community Ltd

  • Newbuildings Community Association

  • Strathfoyle Community Association
