EXCITING PLANS AT LISTOWEL COMMUNITY CENTRE
Following a positive public consultation, Quinn Architects submitted a planning application to Kerry County Council for restoration to part of Listowel Community Centre’s building and an exciting new extension. The centre was hit by a fire in November 2022 which caused extensive damage to part of the building that significantly impacted services the centre offers to enhance community development. The impressive plans provide state of the art design that will redefine the skyline, scheduled to be completed in 2026.
Our team is looking forward to a brighter future on this exciting development and making a strong comeback to provide enhanced and expanded facilities for Listowel town whilst connecting the centre with the Limerick-Kerry Greenway. Our community has been actively engaged throughout the process via various channels which has been an integral part of the process.
This restorative, new project aims to revitalise and modernise our centre, to provide a better service whilst meeting the evolving needs of our community. The building plans incorporate brand new rooms including physical therapy, wellness and sensory rooms, meeting rooms, a BASE recovery area and BASE studio. The vision is to reimagine and rebuild – the future at Listowel Community Centre is bright and promising!

“I joined BASE and was just shy of 16st. I couldn’t have met a warmer reception and encouragement. Trevor implemented a nutrition plan with specific exercises. Within 4 weeks, I lost 16lbs with constant help from all in BASE. I would highly recommend Trevor to help you return to a healthy lifestyle and mindset.”

“I was at BASE Gym prior to having surgery and built up my strength to cope with the demands of the operation.
My recovery has been faster as a result and now I am back in the gym feeling good and ready to crash my 2024 goals!”
