Council’s annual Community Funding Scheme delivers a direct benefit to the community each year.

The applications support a range of exciting projects that involve cultural and community development activities, enhancing the effectiveness of local community groups, supporting local environmental priorities, and enhancing community places and infrastructure.

Council welcomes applications from all not-for-profit community groups and encourages LGBTQIA+, First Nations and other groups who have not applied for funding previously to consider applying.

Applications for 2025-26 will open on Monday 28 April 2025.
