Essentials Award Scheme

Essentials Award Scheme

Funding to help with unexpected but necessary costs to help get you back on track.

Points

Residents can apply for grants to support things like: purchase of tools, equipment or uniforms for a job or school; Job licence fees; transport to a new job until your first pay slip; transport to school for a term; minor home repairs; essential household items etc. 6-8 week application and peer assessment process. Once approved, grants are paid directly to an organisation - not in cash to the applicant, and not for things already paid for.
