In response to the pandemic and as part of our $3.8 million community relief package, Manningham offered community recovery grants to help support local recovery and resilient building initiatives.

Applications were open to local community groups, clubs and not-for-profit organisation delivering projects and initiatives to support our community through COVID-19.

Funding was available across three tiers to assist with local grass roots projects, neighbourhood-based projects and community-wide initiatives.  

Applications for the Community Recovery Grants closed on 10 August and are currently being assessed. Successful community groups will be announced at the September Council Meeting.

Our Grants team are also working with current grant recipients to adapt funded activities to better respond to the needs of our community.
