SMALL businesses and not-for-profit organisations affected by ongoing flooding in New South Wales can now apply for recovery grants of up to $50,000.
The grants are jointly funded through federal and state government Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.
The NSW Government identified a significant number of businesses impacted by multiple flooding events since August, who were likely to face extensive clean-up and repair work.
In addition, Local Government Recovery Grants of $1 million will be extended to a further 46 councils that have been disaster declared from the most recent storm and flood event.
“We know this repeated, relentless flooding is very tough on people, and we want them to know we will be there to support them now – and as they continue to recover,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said.
“The Australian Government is working closely with the NSW Government to ensure financial support is provided where it is needed, to assist residents and local communities who have been impacted by the floods.”
To learn more or apply, businesses and not-for-profits can visit the Service NSW website or call 13 77 88.
