National Trust of Australia (Queensland) is a not-for-profit organisation and member-based charity which offers people the opportunity to feel connected to significant places, collections and stories. We advocate for the recognition and care of Australian heritage and have more than 1000 volunteers and employees state-wide who manage our properties from Currumbin to Cooktown. The National Trust of Australia (Queensland) was established by state legislation in 1963 as a member-based charity. In 2014, the National Trust transitioned to a public company limited by guarantee, a registered charity still, independent of State and Federal governments. We are governed by an independent Board of Directors supported by various Advisory Committees including the National Trust Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary; Audit and Risk; Advocacy and Collections Committees. We acknowledge the tireless work of our staff and volunteers and the regional Branch Committees across Queensland. Members of the National Trust of Australia (Queensland) are entitled to vote for Directors at the Annual General Meetings. We partner with many community organisations and other Australian charities to achieve our mission.
