Partnerships Program


Thank you for your contribution to the development of the Partnerships Policy and Framework, an initiative to help facilitate a clear and transparent way for the community and organisations to work together! Every year, Council provides funding and support through numerous partnerships with community groups, industry bodies, and events. By building strong community connections and celebrating our local identity, we help partners grow and show their impact.

With the Policy and Framework now adopted, we are thrilled to announce the launch of the Partnerships Program!


Applications are open on a rolling basis, but we’ll begin reviewing on November 11. To ensure prompt consideration, we encourage you to submit by the end of the month.

To support your organisation, we have a number of opportunities to connect. Each are optional and designed to assist you throughout the process:

Information Sessions

During these sessions, we will cover onboarding procedures, the value of the partnership model, the program's purpose, and the future of partnerships in our shire.
