How You Can Help

The Trust needs ongoing funding for fence maintenance, planting up the pasture within the new fence with native grasses and shrubs to provide a cover similar to the mountain breeding colonies, for research at the Peninsula and mountain colonies, for predator control in the mountains, amongst other ideas.  We are promoting the formation of a Friends of the Hutton's Shearwater group to help this, accept donations and by selling goods.
