Deadline: 15-Oct-21
The City of Canning is offering Disability Access and Inclusion to support activities and the purchase of equipment which enables access, inclusion and participation of people with disability in local community and sporting activities.
The Disability Access and Inclusion Grant supports either of the following:
- Stand alone activities which meet the grant objectives.
- A complementary grant which will provide additional support to make an activity more inclusive. This may be awarded in addition to any other City of Canning grant and should be applied for at the same time and on the same application form. For example, a CAN Do Grant requests grant support towards a NAIDOC activity along with the inclusion of costs for a sign language interpreter to be present.
