The Local Sport Defibrillator Grant Program, aimed at providing Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) and associated equipment to NSW sport and active recreation facilities and clubs, is now open for applications.
An AED is a device that is used in conjunction with Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and delivers a controlled shock to an individual experiencing cardiac arrest, increasing their chances of survival.
The NSW Government is providing up to $500,000 in funding to eligible sporting clubs and facility owners through the Local Sport Defibrillator Grant Program in 2025/26 with grants up to $3,000 available.
The program opened on Thursday, 25th September 2025, and closes upon funding allocation being exhausted or by 1:00 pm on 1 December 2025 whichever is earlier.
