Support for bushfire affected communities extended to end of 2021
Recovery Support Services for those affected by last season’s unprecedented bushfires have been extended until the end of 2021 by the Federal Government and the NSW Government.
Recovery Support Services link people to their own personalised recovery support worker, who can help navigate and access services and disaster assistance.
Australian Government Minister for Agriculture, Drought and Emergency Management David Littleproud said the extension would ensure long-term support is available for impacted communities throughout their recovery.
“We’re pleased to extend this funding for another 12 months as these locally based services provide an important link between survivors and the support they need as they recover,” Minister Littleproud said.

Armidale Regional Council seeks funding for remediation of old Guyra Landfill
Armidale Regional Council is applying for a grant from the NSW Government to remediate the old Guyra Landfill on Everett Street.
A public meeting was held on January 12, 2021, to inform residents of the planned works, and why the rehabilitation of the site is needed, following the landfill’s closure 12 years ago.
“In 2018, the NSW Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) wrote to Armidale Regional Council indicating a number of concerns with the site, previously managed by the former Guyra Shire Council,” said Director of Businesses and Services Scot MacDonald.
