By playing Lotterywest games, you've helped give a $4 million grant towards the redevelopment of the Champion Centre, the Seville Grove Community facility and Bob Blackburn Reserve in Seville Grove.

The hub is designed for those working to improve their literacy skills, along with training for those seeking employment. Other upgrades include bush rehabilitation and nature play areas.

“The City carried out research that identified what the community saw as most valuable and we have incorporated and enhanced these areas,” Armadale Mayor Henry Zelones said.

“The newly transformed Bob Blackburn area will become a really important community hub that is designed to be widely accessible that will enrich people’s lives and the wider local community”.

Palmerston, Second Bite, Wungening Aboriginal Corporation, Muggin Aboriginal Corporation Mooditj Djena and Foodbank are a few of the organisations to be stationed at the hub. Featured artwork includes ‘Ocean Swell’ by local Aboriginal artist Rohin Kickett, as well as a wall mural designed by artists Matt Adnate and Rohin and Bradley Kickett.

Bob Blackburn was one of the longest serving Freemasons in Armadale and awarded the Great Priory of England in 1980.
