Community Trust Annual Report

Trustees

In May 2006, the trust farewelled Peter McIlraith, Carole Brand and Huriata Weeks. Peter McIlraith served the trust for 12 years and led the trustees as chairman from 1999 to 2005.

Carole Brand and Huriata Weeks both gave eight years of dedicated service and contributed greatly to the governance of the trust with their complementary skills. Carole Brand was deputy chairman from 1999 to 2005 and chairman from November 2005 until May 2006.

Sheryl Frew from the Waimate District, Lee Burdon from the Geraldine District and Stephen Wills from Timaru were welcomed to the board of trustees in June 2006. The considerable skills and community knowledge of all three new trustees means that the succession of the trust remains well balanced.

Trust Staff

There were no changes to the trust staff – John Wilson (executive manager) and Sally Marsh (administration officer) continue to serve the trustees and the community in a professional, friendly and helpful manner.

Professional Development

In March 2007, the Community Trusts of New Zealand held a combined conference with Philanthropy New Zealand at Te Papa in Wellington. Stephen Wills, Sheryl Frew, John Wilson and I attended this very thought-provoking event. Philanthropists, representatives of organisations that received funding and experts in the field of philanthropy from New Zealand and around the world, all told their stories and shared their knowledge and ideas willingly.

The knowledge that was gained will help to inform many of this trust’s future decisions and has already helped trustees to better understand the role the trust can play in making grants and collaborating with other funders and the importance of having meaningful dialogue with the organisations seeking grants and providing services to the community.

NICOLA HORNSEY, Chairperson.
