BARROW VALLEY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Barrow Valley Community Development Company Limited By Guarantee operates the Barrow Valley Activities Hub, a purpose-built community facility nestled on the banks of the River Barrow in the heart of Graiguenamanagh, Co. Kilkenny. Designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape, the Hub serves as a gateway to the Barrow Valley and its hinterland, offering a versatile venue for locals and visitors alike.

The Hub's amenities include modern changing and shower rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, secure storage, and a spacious glass-enclosed training and gathering area that opens onto the river's natural scenery. Set on a four-acre site that functions as a town park, the venue is ideal for large groups, camper-van stays, community sporting events, festivals and school trips focused on outdoor activities. Adjacent walking routes, swimming facilities with diving boards and the picturesque town centre further enhance the experience.

While the Hub provides the space, a range of local providers deliver activities such as water sports, adventure courses and cultural tours, which can be booked directly with them. This collaborative model makes the Barrow Valley Activities Hub a vibrant centre for recreation, education and community engagement in the region.
