Creating a sanctuary
owned by our community

We are a community-led conservation project in the Eastern Bay of Plenty aiming to create an unfenced sanctuary in the heart of Whakatāne.

Guided by the principle of kotahitanga, we know that more can be achieved together than apart. With the support of our dedicated volunteers, we are involved in a range of exciting projects across Whakatāne.
