Kym Rawson Restoration Manager Kym has been the Restoration Manager for the Waiheke Resources Trust since 2016.

He has worked for 13 years under the tutelage of the advisory team both professionally and voluntarily. Kym is a huge asset secured for the benefit of the wetlands and their legacy. Ivan Kitson Project Advisor From an architecture and design background, I moved to Waiheke in 1983. Since then I have been involved in propagation and restoration of Waiheke Native Species as a local plants-man. In the mid-1990’s I was co-writer of Greening Our Gulf Islands, a manual for native restoration on Waiheke Island. I have been involved with and advocating for wetland restoration since the late 1980’s on Waiheke. Tony King-Turner Project Advisor I have a BSc in geology and botany. I have worked as guide and track builder within Fiordland and Abel Tasman National Parks. I have also worked as an outdoor education teacher, wharfie, geologist, farmer, nurseryman, landscaper, pathfinder and environmentalist. Of recent years my work and interest has veered increasingly from landscaping to ecological restoration of forests and wetlands, in the role of volunteer, designer, grant writer and contractor. I also design and build most of the public walkways on Waiheke. Ten years ago I helped set up the Waiheke Island Wetland Initiative (WIWI) with the aim of restoring wetlands and raising public awareness. The Waiheke Resource Trust’s “Love Our Wetlands” is now carrying on this valuable work on Waiheke. Rob Morton Project Advisor I have been involved with ecological restoration on Waiheke for over 25 Restoration team years. I have been growing eco-sourced native plants during that time from The restoration team is a group of passionate our nursery Gulf Trees. Most of our work is with restoration and revegetation environmentalists, made up of experienced plantings, and I have done a lot of hands-on and consultation work as part ecologists, local enthusiasts, volunteers and WRT of these projects. We have supplied trees to many of the Gulf Islands, as interns. The team works using a tuakana/teina model well as from Waiheke. 20 years ago, a group of us bought 169 ha of land at where experienced team members work with, Awaawaroa Bay and we have done massive amounts of restoration with support and build the knowledge of others.
