The Port Douglas Chamber of Commerce has organized a Business Assistance Workshop.

The information that will be provided by the representatives of the participating organizations is essential for the business community to access available programs and financial assistance.

This includes assistance for businesses that have suffered financial loss as a result of the cyclone or turn down in business due to the difficult economic environment; businesses wanting assistance for financial applications or tourism businesses wanting advice to increase their business performance.

Links to each of the websites is attached to enable a better understanding of what they provide.

It is important that the business community attends this workshop, not only to access the assistance and information, but to ensure that the government assistance continues.  If there is not a strong take up in government assistance they will stop providing these programs.  Our community needs to have a voice to the local, state and federal governments regarding local business challenges.

Take-up of these programs ensures the concerns and needs of business are communicated loud and clear.
