The electorate of Tweed has today secured $330,000 in funding for a total of 13 projects through the NSW Government’s 2018 Community Building Partnership Program.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the State Government funds will deliver much-needed improvements to local facilities including clubhouse repairs and a soccer training wall.

“The NSW Government’s strong economic management ensures we are in a position to invest in these important local projects.

“This is fantastic news for Tweed, this grassroots funding will directly help to create a more vibrant and inclusive local community with positive social, environmental and recreational outcomes,” Mr Provest said.

“I congratulate all the organisations that were successful in their application and look forward to seeing how these projects make a real difference for community groups in the area.”

Some of the successful projects in the Tweed electorate for 2018 include:

  •  Grandstands for Casuarina Rugby Fields
  •  Training Wall for Tumbulgum Rangers Sports club
  •  Tweed Valley Early Intervention Service – Roof Replacement

The Community Building Partnership program has funded some 13,800 community projects since it commenced nearly a decade ago.
