Bayside City Council has provided grants across eight programs within the 2022/23 financial year. The program supports initiatives proposed by community groups which strengthen and enrich community life through the provision of an improved range of leisure, cultural, community development, environmental, health, education, sporting and welfare programs and activities.

Annual Community Grants recipients shared in over $210,000 to offer a wide range of programs and activities to Bayside residents.

Quick Response Grants programs include:

Major Grants are an investment in multi-purpose community centres that are accessible to all Bayside residents, meet the needs of the local community, and provide programs and activities that foster community cohesion and increase the quality of life.
