What do you love about our city: is it the village feel, the stunning waterfront, our green hills, our magnificent heritage buildings, the buzz of Cuba Street, the sense of being at the political hub — or the city parks, the café life and the beauty of our coast?

And how can we reflect our people, our culture and our aspirations in the design of our city environment?

The Wellington Civic Trust has been at the forefront of these issuessince we were first established in 1981.

This website is for you! If you are a citizen of Wellington, a developer or a planner, an architect or an artist:

get involved – join with us to celebrate all that is best in our city and be part of the debate on how we develop in the future.

The Civic Trust is leading a campaign to retain the City to Sea Bridge. To support our efforts, click this link to donate directly to the Trust’s Account administered by lawyers Franks Ogilvie (preferred), or through a Givalittle page.
