Seniors Month Grants 2025

Horsham Rural City Council is seeking to partner with community groups to create memorable events for the Victorian Seniors Festival 2025.

The Festival will run throughout the month of October this year, offering a range of affordable and accessible events for seniors to participate in .

Council has a small amount of funding provided by the State Government to support the Victorian Seniors Festival. 

Grants of up to $300 can be used cover event costs such as venue hire, catering and promotion.

Events will also be promoted through the Victorian Seniors Festival program and Council media and communications.

If your community group is interested in hosting an event during the Seniors Festival please complete the Expression of Interest form online.

You are encouraged to contact Council's Grants Team on 53829777 if you require assistance to complete the online form or would like to discuss the event and how it can be supported.

The closing date for Expressions of Interest for the Horsham Seniors Festival is Friday 29 August . This will allow time for Council to allocate funding and start promoting events in September 2025.

Get involved and together we can look forward to an exciting Seniors Festival later in the year.
