 Chair of the Motutapu Restoration Trust and founding Trustee, Hon Chris Fletcher
Our charitable trust was established in February 1994.
We seek to generate and adminster funding to enable the restoration work to be carried out.
This includes seeking sponsorship, donations and grants from external sources, fundraising, Trust run events and subscriptions from the Friends of Motutapu.
The Trust Deed allows for 15 trustees.

The Trust
Our above dedicated group of individuals are committed to restoring the cultural and natural landscapes of Motutapu. Restored island's habitats will enable native wildlife, including endangered species, to thrive in a safe haven free from animal and plant pests. Alongside the ecological restoration, the island's rich archaeological and historic landscapes are being enhanced so that the stories of centuries of human occupation can be enjoyed by all.
Our activities include planting a native forest, restoring wetlands as well as historic site preservation, restoration and interpretation. The restoration programme, through hands on involvement, offers an excellent opportunity to convey primary conservation messages to our many volunteers who generously give of their time on the island.
Through its activities, the Trust provides opportunities to New Zealanders and overseas visitors for lifelong conservation learning.
