Regional Economic Development Grants

The Regional Economic Development Grants (RED Grants) program is a State Government initiative that is investing $55.85 million over ten years in locally-driven projects to stimulate economic growth and development in regional Western Australia.

The RED Grants program supports individual projects that contribute to increasing or sustaining jobs, expanding or diversifying industry, developing skills or capability, increasing business productivity and attracting new investment to the regions.

Eligible applicants can apply for RED Grants funding of up to $250,000 for individual projects in the Peel region.

The RED Grants program for the Peel region is delivered by the Peel Development Commission with support from the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD).
