Connect your community, support mental well-being and get to know your neighbours by embracing a local space.
Embrace a Space is an easy to follow, step-by-step guide for community members to use in celebrating and caring for their important spaces.
Mandurah is renowned for its beautiful waterways, charming plants and wildlife and relaxed, inviting lifestyle. Embrace a Space supports bringing local spaces to life, by providing a platform for community members to connect with nature and each other. Groups of interested residents will be supported through a process of establishing, developing and implementing an activity plan to successfully care for community spaces.
If you're ready to embrace your local space then register as a contact person.
We all feel better when we belong.
All Mandurah residents are encouraged to get neighbourly and connect with their neighbours.
There are a number of tools and resources available to help residents connect with their neighbours. Check out some tips and programs below and commit to touching base with your neighbours today.
Research has shown connecting with your neighbours is important for a number of reasons, including:

- building informal social support networks,
- sharing of local knowledge,
- reducing crime and increasing reporting of suspicious activities, and
- positive mental outcomes.
