The City of Vincent encompasses a number of vibrant inner-city suburbs, including North Perth, Leederville, Highgate and Mount Hawthorn, plus parts of East Perth, West Perth, Perth City and Mount Lawley. Our social media accounts are monitored by City of Vincent staff during business hours (Monday to Friday 8:30am – 4.30pm). While we try to assist with questions wherever we can, more complex matters and conversations can’t always be solved via social media. The best way to make an enquiry is by online request, phone or in writing: https://www.vincent.wa.gov.au/our-city/contact-us.aspx
Respectful open discussion is encouraged on the City’s social media channels. While views may differ, we ask that comments remain polite and conducive to a welcoming and positive online space. Comments on our social media channels are not representative of the opinions of City of Vincent, its Council or its staff. The City of Vincent Communications and Social Media Policy outlines standards for anyone communicating on our social media channels. See the full policy: https://www.vincent.wa.gov.au/our-city/governance/policies.aspx
