Submissions have opened for a new initiative called ‘My little big idea’ which will see a project in Richardson receive up to $40,000.

06 September 2023

The Tuggeranong community can now submit ideas to help improve Richardson as part of a new initiative from the ACT Government.

The new ‘My little big idea’ pilot program aims to involve the community in the decision-making process and up to $40,000 is available for ideas that could have a big impact in Richardson.

All ideas for improvements will be considered, with one winning idea to receive the funding to make it happen.

Potential ideas could include a street library, fitness or cooking classes, a playgroup, event, or series of activities.

A community panel and the public will have the final say on which idea will receive funding which will be shared in 2024.

The program will build on previous programs inviting input from Canberrans on what is needed in their suburb and explore how similar approaches can be used alongside existing budget consultation processes.
