If you are aged 28 years or younger, sing or are interested in singing in your parish choir and wish to attend the 5th Choral Conference, then you may be eligible to receive financial assistance to help with some of the costs e.g. airfare or other transport. All you have to do is email or telephone the details requested below to see if you are eligible. You may apply even if all of your travel and registration costs have already been finalised. Your parents, parish priest or choir director may apply on your behalf.
Eligibility and amount of financial assistance will be determined on an individual basis according to a number of criteria, including the distance you are required to travel to Sydney and the actual expenses you may incur. You will be required to produce receipts. Wherever possible, preference will be given to youth who may experience difficulty because of prohibitive costs. The number of applications received will also have a bearing on individual outcomes. A verbal recommendation may be sought from your parish priest.
The sole purpose of this offer is to encourage youth attendance at the Conference.
