Since 2017, we have aimed to distribute as much as possible of our office operating budget back into the community instead of on advertising or self-promotion materials. In previous years, these funds through various programs have assisted our young Noosans access sports, major initiatives such as the all-abilities mat at Noosa Main Beach, provided emergency accommodations and the ‘Be: Noosa Connect-SCUH Transport Pilot’ which resulted in transport for vulnerable residents to hospital treatments.

The Independent Member for Noosa Sandy Bolton MP has opened her latest funding round, with the popular Quick Start grant program.
