New Addition to the Board

 
 

Julian Gosse

'My father and Uncle were both Directors of the Foundation in its early days with Tom Lewis.
When I met Gillis Broinowski, the Foundation’s current President, I expressed a keen interest to being involved myself. He invited me to become involved in one of the committees.'

I joined the Foundation because
of my love of the outdoors and things natural.

Being a director of the Foundation is
a chance for me to make a real contribution to preserving some of the natural flora and fauna of our state

As a Foundation Director I most look forward to ...
seeing firm results from the projects we undertake and making people aware of our parks and wildlife. As a Director and being involved in the Projects Committee I am particularly interested that our funds are correctly and wisely spent and would like to think that I will be able to see some of the projects first hand as I had the opportunity with Green Gully last year.

For me the most urgent conservation issue in Australia is
water, its use, its availability, its pollution and salt problems and the effect this is having on our environment, waterways etc.

My vision for the Foundation is
to continue as it is in helping in its own way from the smaller projects like Mother of Ducks or Superb Parrot Breeding Study projects to the medium sized Rat eradication project for Lord Howe Island to the more ambitious projects like Green Gully and the Catherine White Legacy for Morton National Park.
