What's On At The Hub 29/09/25


Hello everyone,

We hope you’re keeping well and enjoying the warmer weather as spring settles in. Please note the Village Hub will be closed for the public holiday on Monday 29th — we’ll see you back on Tuesday!


Come Say Hi at Mental Health Week!

Connect will be hosting a stall at Read Park on Saturday, 4 October from 10am – 2pm as part of the Town of Victoria Park’s Mental Health Week community event. It’s a great chance to meet the wider community, share what we do, and highlight the many programs and opportunities at the Hub.


If you’d like to volunteer at the stall and help spread the word, please let us know.

We’d love to encourage our members to take part in this year’s Golden Lens Seniors Photography Competition. It’s a chance to celebrate your creativity, capture meaningful moments, and share the stories and perspectives of older Western Australians. It could also be a fun way of getting a group together to stroll and see what interesting things you can take photos of!


The competition is now open, with prizes on offer across several categories. Entries are simple — just upload your photo with a short description via the Seniors Card website.
