Queens Park is one of Canning’s most diverse neighbourhoods with 60% of residents born overseas.
The neighbourhood is rich in community infrastructure, public open space and cultural assets. During this project we have encouraged and supported community groups to improve and activate the local area.

Over the past three years, our engagement with the Queens Park community has sparked a remarkable transformation. Through dedicated efforts and collaboration, we've embarked on a journey to revitalise our neighbourhood, breathing new life into every corner and fostering a sense of belonging for all residents. At the heart of this initiative lies our unwavering commitment to listening to the voices of our community members, valuing their input, and translating their feedback into tangible actions.
Our approach has been multifaceted, encompassing various programs and events designed to enrich the fabric of Queens Park.
