Small businesses that have experienced a significant decline in revenue as a result of the NSW 2019-2020 bushfires may be eligible for the $10,000 grant through the Small Business Assistance Program.
Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter Catherine Cusack said it was important that small businesses were supported, particularly given the compounded effects of bushfires and now COVID.
"Last season's bushfires were unprecedented and the support offered by the NSW Government needed to match," she said.
"Initially the grants program was expected to close mid-year, however the assistance will remain open until the end of the year and can be accessed via Service NSW.
"In addition to the small business grants, the concessional loans program for small businesses will also be extended."
Grants of $500 to $3000 are also now available to help businesses have experienced a decline in turnover as a result of COVID-19. Applications for these grants close August 16.
