A funding pool of $30,000 is available for eligible clubs, groups, committees, and service providers for projects specifically designed to increase physical activity or support physical activities within Indigo Shire.
Mayor Sophie Price expressed her enthusiasm for the program, describing it as one of the many ways Council is supporting the community’s health and wellbeing.
"Physical activity is the cornerstone of healthy communities, and through the Get Active Indigo Grant program, we're investing directly in the grassroots organisations that help get our residents moving," Cr Price said.
"These grants enable local groups to develop innovative programs, improve facilities, and create more opportunities for everyone in our Shire to lead active, healthy lives."
In past years, several community initiatives have flourished with the support of Get Active grants.
From upgrading sports equipment to come and try events, the grants contribute to making a real difference across Indigo’s communities.
Eligible projects could include come and try days, small scale infrastructure projects, program development or community events centred around physical activity.
Applications for the 2025 Get Active Indigo Grant program are open now and close on 31 March.
Interested organisations can find guidelines and apply online via the Indigo Shire Council website: www.indigoshire.vic.gov.au/getactive
