The Burnie City Council is now offering a Community Assistance grant which opens on Wednesday 3 February 2021 and closes on Wednesday 17 March 2021 and welcomes Clubs and Community Organisations either located in Burnie or which have substantial membership from Burnie residents, and which offer benefits to the people of Burnie. (Note: that financial assistance may be made to regional/district organisations for distribution to sub or local branches where this situation applies); or Not for Profit community organisations providing a public benefit to the Burnie community. 

A Council Officer will be available to provide assistance to Clubs and Organisations to assist with project development and the writing of grant applications.
