If you are experiencing financial difficulties, there are two types of assistance available. The right option for you depends on your situation:
For those facing general financial hardship due to unexpected circumstances such as illness, loss of income, or other financial challenges.
For those affected by a declared natural disaster, such as floods, fires, or severe storms.
Please note: When applying for Disaster Financial Hardship, you must provide the required evidence, as outlined on the form, at a Council office for verification
For more information read the Frequently Asked Questions here and the Financial Harship Policy here.
If you were affected by the flood event visit Councils' Community Flood Recovery page for information on available grants and loans for residents, businesses and farmers.
