A lot of what we do relies on sponsors so we would like to publically thank all those who have assisted us, big and small. If in your dealings you can use the following sponsors it would be appreciated. If you know of other sponsors who should be mentioned on this page let me know

Those who have assisted us in some way are:

FLETCHER DIMOND - Supplying all of Bach 38s roofing as well as the workshop roofing

A special thanks to all who have found us sponsorship for products, like that of Dave Cox, for our contact with Jenkins for weatherboards and the front door glass. Lyn Trainer arranging for Arnold the plumber to do the spouting etc.

Also thanks to all our volunteers who have given their time advice and expertise freely over the past year.
Its been great having you, your skills and enthusiasm and we look forward to seeing you again at the next working bee.

A special thanks must also go to AMP for there generous donation which believe it or not makes it easier to seek some form of sponsorship if not complete sponsorship from other organisations. It enables us to make better deals knowing we have the money to back us. It has amazed me that we can approach firms knowing we have the money in the bank and being able to purchase direct from the supplier at trade price.

Our thanks goes to DoC for whose help we could not do without in the transportation of goods to the Island and the use of their warehouse in Devonport.
