A big shout out to the Office of Sport and Steve Kamper for continuing to support this lifesaving program. Get in quick folks!

Applications are now open for the Local Sport Defibrillator Grant Program.

The Office of Sport is providing up to $500,000 to help community sporting organisations purchase, maintain and provide training for automated external defibrillators (AEDs).

Since 2017, the Program has supported the installation of more than 2,500 AEDs at community sport and recreation facilities across NSW, helping improve participant safety and emergency preparedness.

This year, all funded AEDs will be registered on the GoodSAM AED Registry, strengthening emergency response capabilities and public access to life-saving equipment.

📅 Applications close 7 October 2026, or earlier if funding is exhausted.
