04.01.2022 COVID-19 had a profound impact on Newcastle's arts and culture sector. Newcastle’s artists and those working in the arts sector are encouraged to complete a quick, confidential survey to help understand the economic, creative and psychological impact of the pandemic. The impact of the pandemic on the sector has been widely recognised by governments, business and the community, the scale of the impact to the sector at a personal and organisational level has not been establis...hed. Your contribution through the survey will deliver necessary evidence to help support the sector's recovery.

02.01.2022 A NSW parliamentary committee has backed up complaints that Newcastle misses out on millions in state funding because the government does not regard it as metropolitan or regional. A HRFC report, prepared for City of Newcastle and presented to the committee, found Newcastle local government area should have received an extra $170 million in state grants in 2019 based on its share of NSW's economic output. It also found Newcastle was ineligible to apply for regional funding schemes totalling $5.85 billion and received only a tiny fraction of what it was due under the Restart NSW fund. #Newcastle #HRFCinsights
