STUDENT nurses in the region are invited to apply for the South Grafton Nursing Grant provided by the Country Women’s Association (CWA) of NSW North Coast Group.
The Group covers an area from Urunga through the Coffs Coast to Iluka and west to Dorrigo.
In 2007 the funding, which was established after the CWA rooms in South Grafton were sold, provides up to three $1,000 grants to assist with course expenses for student nurses.
Applicants must have lived within the group area for at least three years and be undertaking a university course, undergraduate, postgraduate or refresher course.
“Essential criteria include sending a covering letter along with educational standard qualifications, experience, personal goals and objectives,” CWA North Coast Group President Leonie Saunders said.
Applications close 31 August 2025 and applicants must be available to attend the Group Conference in Grafton on 15 October.
All applications are to be sent to Leonie Saunders by email leonie.saunders@hotmail.com or post to 63 Witonga Drive, Yamba NSW 2464.
