Bathurst Access Improvement Grants

Bathurst Regional Council provides grants to assist small businesses, and non-profit organisations improve access and inclusion to their place of business/organisation. 

Small businesses and non-profit organisations within the Bathurst Region may apply for funding of 50% of project costs, up to a maximum grant amount of $5,000.

Projects must be completed within the 2025/2026 financial year to be eligible to apply for a grant. Retrospective funding can be considered, providing the project is completed in the current financial year.

In the past, funds have been awarded to complete paths, build access ramps, install automatic doors and build or modify accessible toilets.

Applications for 2025 are now closed. 

Successful 2025/2026 projects must be completed by Friday 15 May 2026.
