This workshop aims to increase trapping to protect the amazing bird life in the Ashley estuary and wetlands just north of Christchurch… But it’s not just about the Ashley! If you live anywhere in New Zealand and are interested in finding out more about predators and trapping in your area, come along to this FREE workshop, followed by afternoon tea (we’ll even have chocolate biscuits!) Experienced trappers are coming to swap tips and tricks, so here's your chance to learn more about how we can make New Zealand predator free by 2050.

So just a warning to lock your car up each night, and don't keep valuables in your car overnight. Always scummy opportunists lurking around ☹️
