HISTORIC sites are designed to restore and protect properties and sites for future generations.

 

The community is at the heart and centre of the program, with funding for conservation works and upgrades that will help improve public access and connection to heritage. They will also provide attractions for both locals and tourists.

 

Minister for Heritage, Penny Sharpe said, “Our record investment highlights the Minns Labor Government’s commitment to preserving the historic places that matter the most – whether it is iconic buildings, local landmarks, or sites of deep cultural significance.

 

“These heritage grants ensure historic places and stories continue to be passed down through the decades helping us create a stronger sense of identity.”

 

The 2025-2027 NSW Heritage Grants Program is investing in 140 projects across the state, through several streams of grants:

 

Wyong Town Park Conservation Management Plan will receive $25,000 from the Local Government Heritage Grants to provide greater understanding of this unique community asset. It will provide management and policy recommendations for its ongoing maintenance, restoration, and activation. The Conservation Management Plan will be the first step in turning this underused and unsafe landscape into a vibrant, inviting community asset.

 

David Harris Member for Wyong said, “This is great news for Wyong and a credit to the people and grassroots organisations who preserve our local heritage sites for everyone to appreciate and enjoy.

 

“This record NSW Government investment in the 2025-2027 Heritage Grants Program is vital in ensuring the stories of our past are never forgotten.

 

“We want to continue to unlock more opportunities for local people and visitors to engage with our heritage and culture.”
