In 2019, Foscadh Housing was announced winner of the Community Integration in Housing Award by the Irish Council for Social Housing (ICSH), recognising Foscadh’s achievements in community integration at the Lia Bhrega estate in Drogheda, home to families, single people, the elderly and people with special needs from 18 different nationalities. As a scalable model for community integration, Lia Bhrega provides an excellent example of what can be achieved when working together towards a common goal.

Foscadh Housing launched Phase One and Phase Two of Lia Bhrega, its largest development, in 2009. The final phase comprising four more homes was completed in 2014, successfully addressing the demand for much needed accommodation for applicants on Drogheda Borough Council’s waiting list. To fund the 69 unit development, Foscadh Housing obtained private finance and also availed of the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government’s CALF (Capital Advance Leasing Facility) programme and the innovative “Build to Lease” social housing programme. The homes are a result of a collaborative partnership between Foscadh, Drogheda Borough Council, the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government, the Housing Finance Agency and private lenders. Foscadh Housing also worked with partners The Safe Home Programme and the Drogheda’s Homeless Aid to allocate homes to those in need. Lia Bhrega is located in Drogheda, a medieval town situated on the river Boyne and in the world-famous Boyne Valley region, just off the M1 motorway and 56km north of Dublin.
