2025 Annual General Meeting & Guest Talk
Join the Friends of Bold Park Bushland at our 2025 Annual General Meeting where we will hear from special guest speaker, historian Richard Offen, on "A history of Bold Park"
Richard Offen spent nearly 15 years on the staff of the UK National Trust. He immigrated to Perth in 2005 to become the inaugural director of Heritage Perth, a post he held until retiring in 2017. During that time, he became a very popular speaker and broadcaster, promoting the history and heritage of Western Australia. In ‘semi-retirement’, Richard now spends his time as an author and broadcaster, having written for Pavilion Books ‘Perth Then and Now’, ‘Lost Perth’ and ‘A Perth Camera’, the first two of which are on the Australian ‘best seller’ list. Richard is a Councillor on the Heritage Council of Western Australia, and President of both the Royal Western Australian Historical Society and the Friends of the Battye Library.
Following the guest presentation, we'll have reports on the activities of the Friends of Bold Park Bushland over the past year, and an update from the Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority on their management activities in Bold Park. We will also be electing the 2025/26 FOBPB Management Committee and recognising a long-term volunteer.
We hope you can then stay for a delicious supper at the end of the evening!
