How to apply for Council Grants

We encourage you to make contact with the Grants team prior to making a submission. 

If you do not have a computer or access to the internet, please visit one of the Western Downs Libraries to use a computer or to access free internet. If you require assistance with setting up your online application, our friendly Library staff are happy to help.
