Well Hello Toowoomba welcome to another episode from the Talkin Toowoomba Bunker, fingers crossed we might slowly be starting to come out the other side of iso!. In this episode we talk Business and how this pandemic has hit small business. We chat to Toowoomba's MR Linkedin, Brendan Gobely, from

Now lets get Talkin Toowoomba, with some news of the week.
We spoke of the assistance packages for residents last week, and the grants for sporting and community groups, well here is the updated information on this.
The Micro grant applications are now open for all community groups, including sporting organisations, with grants for up to $499. This is going to be done quickly , so you need to get IT done before close of business Friday 15 May, and applications can only be received via email.
The applications will be processed within a week of the close ,with the successful applicants starting to receive funding forms by the end of May.
There is a link on our show notes and our website episode page, to the councils micro grant page.
Staying with the council, they have an upgraded and more user friendly website, so check it out.
We will bring you more news as things start to re-open over coming months.
