Welcome to Healthy Communities
Healthy Communities is a partnership between the Local Government and Shires Associations and NSW Health and aims to improve the capacity of councils throughout New South Wales to promote health and well-being.
The first phase of Healthy Communities was to provide grants for up to $80,000 for council initiatives addressing key health issues—healthy weight, responsible drinking, tobacco control, and falls prevention—in communities experiencing health inequities.
Twenty NSW council initiatives aimed at improving the health of local communities have been awarded funding totalling more than $730,000.
