The Selwyn Residents Group Fund is a newly established fund designed to support resident groups who represent their communities and contribute to making Selwyn a great place to live, work and play by contributing to community wellbeing and bringing communities together.

Selwyn Residents Group Fund will involve a funding application process that has specified opening and closing dates and a contestable process. The Selwyn Residents Group Fund will close on 31 July, 31 October, 31 January and 30 April.
