Disaster assistance available

Disaster assistance is available to eligible people on the Peninsula whose homes or belongings were damaged during the storms of June 4 and 5.

The Central Coast was one of 37 local government areas across NSW to receive assistance.

The assistance included help for people whose homes or belongings were damaged and who meet asset and income tests.

Councils were helped with costs associated with cleaning up and restoring damaged public assets.

Concessional interest rate loans were provided for small businesses and not-for-profit organisations; and grants to not-for-profits.

Assistance was provided through the jointly-funded Commonwealth-State Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements, designed to help ease the financial burden that communities bear as a result of natural disasters.

For more information, contact the Disaster Welfare Assistance Line on 1800 018 444.

To apply for a concessional loan, grant or subsidy, contact the NSW Rural Assistance Authority on 1800 678 593.
