Surf live saving clubs can apply for $5.4 million in funding for new and upgraded facilities with grants up to $1 million available.
The Program aims to keep surf life saving clubs modern and accessible, helping surf life savers to better protect beachgoers.
Projects that encourage the participation of women and girls, people with disability, First Nations peoples, people from culturally and linguistically diverse communities, and LGBTQIA+ are a priority of the Program.
Grants will be awarded across three categories for projects that involve the upgrade, restoration or construction of new surf life saving facilities.
Category 1 offers grants up to $100,000 for facility improvement projects and closes on 14 October 2024. Category 2 offers grants up to $400,000 for small-medium construction projects and Category 3 offers grants up to $1 million for large construction projects with both closing on 11 November 2024.
