Governor General Visit to Central Energy Trust Wildbase Recovery

We were very privileged to be visited by the Governor-General of New Zealand Dame Patsy and her husband Sir David in the New Year

We were fortunate to have been visited by the Governor-General of New Zealand Dame Patsy and her husband Sir David recently. Alongside Massey University’s Wildbase Hospital and the Department of Conservation, we gave them a tour of Central Energy Trust Wildbase Recovery and our amazing Powerco Education Centre.

We were most flattered when Dame Patsy expressed an interest in coming back for our opening soon. We thank her greatly for her continuing patronage to Central Energy Trust Wildbase Recovery.

More information and images can be found on the Governor-General website.
