Mediolanum International Funds is set to fund a full-size community playing pitch for Dublin's southwest inner city. Mediolanum International Funds has announced plans to fund the delivery of the first, full-size community playing pitch for the southwest inner city. At an event in Dublin’s City Hall on Tuesday night, Mediolanum International Funds announced that it had raised more than €1.1 million for community initiatives across Dublin. Tom Magee of Sporting Liberties, an umbrella group of local sports clubs which has been spearheading the campaign for a playing pitch, said the impact of the project would “be felt for generations”. Dublin City Council has committed to delivering a separate playing pitch as part of its planned redevelopment of the nearby Marrowbone Lane depot site.
