Funding community visits

Sometimes it’s easiest to get your funding sorted if you can talk to someone. Our Community Funding Advisor is available to meet people in their communities and talk about:

• the type of funding Council has available
• the eligibility criteria around funding through Council
• registration process and how to use our online application system
• helpful tips around funding.

Book a visit with our Community Funding Advisor. Meetings take place at your nearest Community Hub/Library.
