The North Fremantle Social Club is a grassroots association formed to organise events and activities in North Fremantle and the broader Fremantle area.

The North Fremantle Social Club is a grassroots association that holds social and community events in the broader Fremantle area and seeks to establish a hub for arts, socialising, music, well-being and other community activities in North Fremantle. The NFSC are currently preparing a proposal for a member-run community centre at the site of the former North Freo Bowls Club. We recognise this site is known and loved by many members of the community in both the North and greater Fremantle. Our proposal is for an engaging space in which we can host and foster a creative program of community events within a family friendly, social and inclusive atmosphere for all members of the community. We envisage a space that anyone would be happy to find themselves in, whether to have a drink and engage in a game on the grass, for a workshop, lecture, or spending time with family listening to a band on a Sunday afternoon. Spaces like this are far and few between and thrive through a shared sense of ownership and belonging. We would love to have the opportunity to contribute to the life of this town we have sunk our roots into. Please do get in touch with us if you would like to get involved. Sincerely,
- NFSC

As many of you may have heard after a very competitive EOI process The City of Fremantle decided to support The Bowlo's bid for the former North Fremantle Bowls Club rather than the North Fremantle Social Club.

We'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of you, the diverse and absolutely incredible Fremantle community. For the last four years we have been blown away by the amount of support we have received for our vision for a social club. It is obvious to us that Fremantle needs the kind of inclusive and proactive social space that we wish to create. So sincerely, from the bottom of all of our hearts, we thank all of you.

But *importantly* many councillors and others at the City of Freo also recognise the need for the social club. So we're very happy to say that we've already begun organising talks with the city to find us a space for this important project. As Mayor Hannah Fitzhardinge said at the FPOL meeting, the social club is "bigger than this venue (the former Bowls club)".

So stay tuned mates. We're not going anywhere and we hope that when we finally find a venue, every single one of you legends will be there to celebrate with us ❤️

With love and respect,
- North Fremantle Social Club Committee

The North Fremantle Social Club are excited about the reinvigoration of an over a century old community asset. The North Fremantle Bowls Club site has been a much-loved yet under-utilised public space over the last several years.

We have thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with the North Fremantle and broader Fremantle community since our efforts started back in 2018.

Our committee welcomes the move by City of Fremantle to defer determining the new lease until September 13th's FPOL meeting to better understand shortlisted proposals.

As is evident in our proposal, we believe our strength is in our ability to collaborate, and we look forward to continued engagement with the North Fremantle community, including working with other applicants.

The North Fremantle Social Club is also committed to efforts that activate the broader precinct adjoining the site.

The immense support for the North Fremantle Social Club has been humbling, and we welcome everyone in the community to get involved and join us! ❤️

❤️ ACTION CALL OUT ❤️

Hi all, the good news is that the North Freo Social Club was shortlisted by City Of Fremantle staff to lease the former Bowls Club.

However, *sadly* council staff have decided not to recommend our proposal to council, choosing another proposal instead.

BUT it's not over yet!

Council are still able to consider alternative proposals, including the North Freo Social Club when they meet this Wednesday.

Our vision for this space has attracted so much support from the community and community organisations, representing what Fremantle really is about! We still very much hope we can build an inclusive and accessible space for all, no matter your age, background or locality.

Please join us this Wednesday to support the North Freo Social Club and demonstrate the need for genuine community run spaces ❤️

When: 545pm, Wednesday 24th of Aug
Where: Meet outside the Walyalup Civic Centre
What: to attend a regular Council Meeting and show support for the North Freo Social Club's proposal

How great was RTR's winter music fest last night?!

RTRFM 92.1 are one of the many organisations keen to support the NFSC, it'd be amazing to see the winter music festival back at the old bowls club next year 🤘🤞

We've still not heard back re the outcome of our EOI so please keep ya fingers and toes crossed for us ❤️

12/06/2022

Hi all, just a quick update. We're waiting to hear back from CoF re our EOI to take over the old North Freo Bowls Club, to turn it into a rad social and community space.

We should know within the next few weeks if we are successful 🤞

Thanks for your ongoing support and patience, we'll hopefully be back soon with some good news 🤗✨
