Habitat forever!

On Saturday we were pleased to entertain Andrew Brookes, Chair of the Trust for Nature Board and Corinne Proske, Trust for Nature CEO, with a brief tour of parts of the Co-op. Unfortunately the Powerful Owl had left its roost but the Tawny Frogmouth and chicks were much more accommodating.

Over lunch we had a very encouraging discussion about how we could work together into the future. Thanks to Caroline and Pierre, Richard and Robin, Felicity and Aawa, and Karyn for coming along, and special thanks to Doug for extending the invitation to Andrew and Corinne.

Last week we signed the final version of our Trust for Nature Deed of Covenant, a significant step in the process. Our Deed will now go before the TFN Board for ratification then to the Minister for sign-off and registration.

We are very happy to be joining the Trust for Nature family and look forward to meeting other covenanters and sharing knowledge.
