19.01.2022 LOVE LENNOX FESTIVAL POSTPONED DUE TO COVID-19 The coronavirus pandemic continues to evolve and we do know it is a period of great uncertainty for everyone in...cluding our local business community. The Lennox Head Chamber of Commerce is closely tracking the latest advice from governments on the trajectory of the pandemic and its implications for everyone. What we do know for now is this: the existing advice from government on mass gatherings sets a strict limit of 500 people. Governments are also continuing to issue fresh guidance, on an almost daily basis, to stay ahead of COVID-19. We do not know how long these arrangements will remain in place, but governments are signalling they are expected to remain in place for at least a couple of months. Given that, we have decided to postpone our flagship event, the Love Lennox Festival, which was due to be held in early June. We know this will be a disappointment to our great partners on the events sponsors, patrons and most of all, the local businesses that take stalls at the event. We also know that during a time of economic challenges, the impact of not hosting the event in June is significant but we simply can’t plan the event with any confidence. Please be assured we will be continuing to look for the first opportunity to reschedule the event hopefully later in the year - and bring our main street to life with thousands of patrons. We’ll keep you informed as we make decisions. In the meantime, the Lennox Chamber will be looking to soon circulate the latest advice to local businesses on the range of stimulus initiatives being provided by governments and how you might be able to access them. Stay healthy and support local business where it is safe to do so.

10.01.2022 Grant relief for small businesses The NSW Government will today announce $10,000 grants for small businesses including cafes, restaurants and gyms in NSW affected by restrictions during the coronavirus crisis. To be eligible, a business must employ up to 19 people and turn over more than $75,000 a year.... The grants were similar to the ones provided to small businesses in areas devastated by the recent bushfires, which attracted some criticism for the criteria and speed. "We will make the application process easy to ensure small businesses can receive some cash-flow as soon as possible to meet pressing needs," Premier Gladys Berejiklian said.
