Somerset groups share in $100K
Three Somerset community groups are among 14 local organisations receiving a share of $101,200 in federal funding through the latest round of the Australian Government’s Stronger Communities Programme.
In the Somerset region, $10,000 will fund a covered entertainment area at the Glamorgan Vale Community Hall, the PCYC Fernvale will replace vital defibrillators, and the Linville Progress Association will receive $6,700 for an E-Bike charging station for Brisbane Valley Rail Trail users.
Federal Member for Blair, Shayne Neumann, said he is “very proud” to have delivered for local organisations. “We’re making sure our suburbs and country towns remain great places to live, work and play by investing in critical community assets and in a fair and transparent way,” he said.
“Having high-quality community infrastructure in outer suburban and regional areas is absolutely vital, and this funding will help build and upgrade key facilities that can be enjoyed for years.”
