Can you help?
Knowledge of the history of a local area depends greatly on information provided by current and former residents. The Heritage Services team is keen to hear from anyone who can provide details or highlight any inaccuracy in the collection.

Photographs and documents
If you have documents or photographs that help tell the story of the City of Gosnells that you'd like to donate to the Community History Collection or our Museum, we'd love to hear from you! We're also able to make high resolution scans of photographs and return the original to you.
Please contact the Community History Officer on 9391 6010 or email heritage_queries@gosnells.wa.gov.au

Do you know someone who was important to the community?
Were they involved in the development of a local club, building, or grounds? Did they win a special award, play high level sports, or gain some other form of notoriety? Or were they a quiet achiever who was significant to the area’s history in other ways? Why not help the City record the importance of their involvement, and nominate them to be interviewed as part of the City’s Oral History Project.
Volunteers welcome
The City encourages members of the community to volunteer their time to community history and heritage related works, even for a few hours each week. It's a great way to find out more about your local area, meet new people, and be involved with your local community.
