Youth and community development officer Jenna Harvey said the second round of the Rochester community fund would officially close at midnight on Sunday, June 15.

“No late applications will be accepted, so if you haven't already applied, now is the time to do so,” she said.

Eligible community members can apply for up to $200 of financial support payments, with that number capped per household.

Ms Harvey said applications could be made online via the link on the Rochester Community House Facebook page.

As there are no paper applications available, residents can bring proof of residency and bank details to get help in-person if problems arise.

“If you require assistance to apply ... or would like more information about eligibility, please come and see the staff at Rochester Community House,” Ms Harvey said.
