$500 BASC Voucher Scheme 

Tell us about your experience with the NSW Government’s $500 BASC Voucher Scheme

By helping us build our data on the vouchers scheme you are enabling us to further our advocacy work. Your contribution is invaluable.

Network is advocating for the NSW Government to:

Remove the reporting requirements for the $500 BASC Voucher scheme
Commit to no recovery action being taken at the conclusion of the scheme (no recouping unspent voucher monies from OOSH Services)
Take action to address urgent staffing concerns in the OOSH Sector, including worker shortages and skill gaps.
We need your help.

We have heard countless stories from the OOSH Sector regarding the challenges that the $500 vouchers have posed. Sharing your experience in this survey allows us to collate this information in a way that will help us to help you, by advocating on your behalf.

Survey for Single or Stand-Alone OOSH Services

Survey for Providers with Multiple OOSH Services
