Wollongong City Council Connecting Neighbours Grants  

What are Connecting Neighbours Grants?

Our Connecting Neighbours Grants program provides small grants to community members and groups who want to make a positive impact in their local area.

The focus is on creating connections between neighbours and creating stronger local communities.

Previous projects have included

  • BBQ’s and morning teas to welcome new neighbours
  • Social outings, such as for a group of isolated older neighbours
  • Working bees, gardening or creative activities.

The selection process

Applications will be reviewed by a panel who will then recommend the projects to be approved by the General Manager. Applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application within 4 weeks of the closing date.

Closing time and date of this round is 5pm, Monday 31st August 2026.
