Te Hoiere Kaitiaki Charitable Trust
Te Hoiere Kaitiaki Charitable Trust was formed in 2022 to provide leadership and guidance for the restoration and enhancement of the Te Hoiere Project area and receiving waters. The receiving waters cover Te Hoiere/Pelorus Sound to Te Kakaho/Chetwode Islands.
Our trustees represent tangata whenua, the community, and Marlborough District Council, with special advisers from our key funding partners Department of Conservation and Ministry for the Environment. As trustees, it is our job to reinforce the Te Hoiere Project into the future, using rangatiratanga (leadership), robust governance and funding.
A guiding principle of the Te Hoiere Project is kotahitanga (unity), which is the driving strength of the project. People plan and work collaboratively with respect and kindness to restore Te Hoiere/Pelorus land and waters.
Co-chairs Barbara Faulls and Waihaere Mason.
