The Tweed Heads Chamber of commerce was back on deck this week with the first breakfast held on Tuesday at the Tweed Heads Bowls Club.
The recent floods have affected us all in some way and businesses in the Tweed have not being immune from the damage and disruption.
NSW Business Chamber has assistance available to members and wants to ensure that support goes to those who are most in need and have no other means of financial support, so they will provide $200,000 in grants to flood damaged small businesses in Northern NSW.
I can’t think of anything much worse than seeing one’s hard work, sweat and tears being destroyed by a natural disaster. Entrepreneurs invest heavily in their businesses, and employ fellow Australians.
It’s an Australian sentiment to stick with your partners through thick
and thin – and this is the time when
the business community of NSW needs to come together and help each other out.
In terms of allocation, NSW Business Chamber will provide 40 grants of $5,000 to employing small businesses.
