Families are encouraged to make the most of any outstanding Stay NSW and Parents NSW vouchers these school holidays before they expire on 9 October 2022.
Member for Cootamundra Steph Cooke said these vouchers have provided hip pocket relief to families and helped boost their budget.
“The people of NSW have warmly embraced both the Stay and Parent voucher programs, with almost $282 million injected into the State’s economy since their inception,” Ms Cooke said.
“The vouchers are a win-win. They provide a boost to household budgets as well as providing much-needed stimulus for local businesses, with the average spend tracking well above $100 when they redeem a $50 voucher for both programs.
“I encourage the community to redeem any outstanding vouchers. Whether you want to book a weekend away or take the kids to a movie or wildlife park, the school holidays are the perfect time for people to use their vouchers. Don’t miss out, with only two weeks left, use them or lose them.”
These vouchers help support accommodation providers in NSW impacted by COVID-19. NSW residents aged 18 and older can apply for one $50 voucher to use towards the cost of accommodation bookings.
The NSW Government launched these vouchers to reward and thank eligible NSW households for their efforts to support learning from home in 2021. One person from each eligible household can apply for five $50 vouchers, worth $250 in total.
NSW Government Vouchers are non-transferable and can only be redeemed by the customer who was issued the voucher. They cannot be used as a gift or donation to a registered business and cannot be exchanged for cash or gift vouchers.
