Digiclare Digital Hubs

Digiclare is a new initiative of Clare County Council as part of its Rural Development Strategy to support rural communities by providing flexible, affordable and local office facilities and high-speed broadband connectivity in rural locations in County Clare. The first three digital hubs were opened on Friday 2nd March 2018 and we welcomed our first users on Monday the 5th of March. The fourth Ennistymon Hub opened November 2019. The Kilkee Hub is located in the Elliot Centre, Kilkee and opened July 2020. Two more hubs opened at the end of 2020, the Corofin Hub located in the Community Centre, Corofin and another hub in the Michael Cusack Centre, Carron. These facilities utilise broadband and digital technology as a key enabler of Rural Development. The digital hubs will support rural social enterprises and the wider community by facilitating e-working, small-scale training and conferencing.
