We are pleased to offer grant funding to local community groups wishing to celebrate the festive season in their community. Through our Community Services team this year we are supporting a variety of event styles.
Each community group has made the decision to either host their switch on event in person or to mark the festivities in an appropriate manner for their community.
The council encourages all local groups to share their festive photos and videos with us.
