PROJECT
Wellard Village 7 Day Makeover
This award recognises the innovative, collaborative approach taken by the City of Kwinana, in partnership with the team from RAC Reconnect WA, and facilitated by David Engwicht, to inspire the local community to collectively reimagine and revitalise the Wellard Village neighbourhood centre.
The project demonstrates how local residents can be empowered to transform their neighbourhood, using a dynamic, fast-paced, enjoyable and action-oriented approach, engaging people of all walks of life to get involved and make significant changes to an area. It also has provided a catalyst for Kwinana to build strong and enduring relationships with its community. Significantly the seven-day makeover project has fostered inter-generational connections with a sense of shared ownership and identity in the Wellard Village neighbourhood centre.
