Donation Info & Contacts

Donations

The Trelissick Park Group members are all volunteers - donating their labour and much else. There is always a need for funding for plant purchases and special projects. We have ongoing plant nursery costs (potting mix, fertiliser) and running costs (for example, photocopying, stationery).

The most recent special project was building bridge 7 across the Kaiwharawhara Stream to connect with the new track coming down from Oban Street, Wadestown. This new track and bridge are now much enjoyed by visitors. They also provide access to a large new area that needs restoration and pest control.

We assure you that any donation will be spent entirely on improving the park for all users. If you want to donate directly, our bank account number is 03 0518 0192940 00. Contact the Chair or the Treasurer for other donation options. We are not a registered charity so donations are not eligible for tax credit.
