Ó Donnghaile welcomes East Belfast lottery Funding.

Sinn Féin's East Belfast Representative has welcomed the news that the Connswater Community Greenway is to receive £26.5 million from the lottery's living landmark fund, to implement their ambitious project for the East of the City.

"I am delighted at the news; this has been an on-going project in the East of the City for quiet some time now and I along with other members of the Short Strand Partnership gave this worthwhile and more importantly community driven project our full support. I want to commend all those involved and congratulate them on this achievement."

"Many parts of East Belfast have been overlooked during our city's economic boom and I look forward to the much needed economic, employment and environmental advances that this project will no doubt bring in the future."
