The Draft Grants and Donations Policy guides the application process, allocation and evaluation of funding to address community needs under Section 356 of the Local Government Act 1993.

Our Grants and Donations programs support initiatives and projects that build the social, cultural, environmental and economic life of the area.

Through these programs, Council partners with the community and businesses to further the actions, strategic directions and vision of Council’s Community Strategic Plan.

Proposed Changes

The Grants and Donations Policy provides subsidised access to selected Council venues for community groups, but not all venues are currently included.

To improve community access and usage, the policy has been updated to make all facilities eligible for subsidised hire under both the Venue Hire Grants Program and the Event Grants.

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the consultation. Our project team will review your submissions and provide an update on next steps shortly.

Consultation on the Draft Policy was open from 26 March to 23 April 2025.
