Emergency quick response grants available to community broadcasters

Community broadcasters affected by floods can apply for quick response grants in the case of emergencies through the Community Broadcasting Foundation (CBF).

Emergency situations include:

  • Replacing essential equipment and related expenses to restore basic transmission following an unforeseen event such as flood, bushfire, lightning, theft or drought
  • Replacing essential operational equipment and related expenses not able to be reasonably anticipated
  • Unexpected changes at your studio or transmission site such as a sudden need to relocate
  • A financial loan while an insurance claim is being processed and/or funds are raised

Further details can be found here.
