New Pilot to Boost Jobs for Traveller Communities | Limerick News

A new pilot program led by Ballyhoura Development is set to launch in September 2026, offering targeted job training and business support for Traveller and Roma communities across East Limerick and North Cork. Based at Coote Hall Resource Centre in Kilmallock, the initiative will pair one-on-one career coaching with culturally sensitive community engagement — including a peer worker from within the Traveller community — to break down barriers to employment and education. Designed to empower young people and strengthen ties with local employers, this project builds on Ballyhoura’s existing trust and relationships, aiming to create clear pathways into work and training while respecting cultural identity.
