The Seven Springs Day Centre in Loughrea has been given approval by HIQA to fully reopen.
It follows a long-running campaign by the Concerned Citizens Group Loughrea – who have held protests, spoke at an Oireachtas Committee and set up a petition over its closure.
The centre will be opened on a phased basis and will be fully operational – providing services five days a week – in the coming weeks.
There is now also additional space for the day service, which delivers essential services and facilities for older people in the community.
