GRANTS TO ENTICE MORE PEOPLE TO MOVE TO NEWCASTLE

City of Newcastle this week launched its ‘New Move’ initiative, offering up to 30 people a $10,000 grant to move to the city in the hope of attracting new talent and boosting the local economy. 

Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes said COVID-19 has shown that people can work from anywhere in the world. “Increasingly young professionals are choosing smaller, but well-connected cities, like Newcastle due to their superior lifestyle. 

Successful applications will be able to spend their $10,000 relocation grant within the Newcastle local government area to help with their transition, with the council also offering a tailored program of ongoing networking opportunities and support,” Ms Nelmes said. Expressions of interest for the program are now open. 

The council will host an event for applicants to explore and experience the local community, industry and culture from 9 - 11 April.
