Waitakere Ranges Protection Society WRPS

Description:

The Society is a community based organisation with a membership of over 600 individuals and families. It is an incorporated society. It has been in existence since 1973 and in that time has campaigned for the preservation and restoration of the Ranges through direct action in restoration planting, weed control, through interventions on both planning matters and on public works which threatened the integrity of the area. The Society's fundamental goals are: To protect Auckland's western forest arid coastline from degradation and to promote its conservation. To enhance environmental values and restore disturbed areas to ecological health. To see the region managed and nurtured by a unified and consistent philosophy of protection. To provide an unequivocal voice speaking for this area of exceptional natural heritage. The Ranges are a place of high value, for its ecosystems, for the beauty of its rugged landscape, its ocean and harbour shore and for its native plant and animal life.
