Council help with firstaid training

MEMBERS of community groups and organisations required to undertake firstaid training have been invited to apply for a grant to assist with training costs, as part of the City of Casey’s grants program.
Director community services Jennie Lee said the City of Casey had recently introduced a limited number of first aid grants valued at $75 each.
“Community groups and organisations are an integral part of our society. The City of Casey’s First Aid Training Grant program will assist some of these groups to afford this important training,” Ms Lee said.
The grants are available to one representative per organisation per quarter, and applications must be made by the organisation on the individual’s behalf.
Applicants can apply for reimbursement of funds for training occurring within a sixweek period of the application being submitted.
Full details are listed in the guidelines, which are available on council’s website. Application forms are available by contacting customer service on 9705 5200 or by visiting www.casey .vic.gov.au/firstaidtraininggrants.
