Online Resources
It’s early days for this section! We’ll be adding pages and documents as they are developed, so either keep an eye on this page, or our posts on our Facebook group! We won’t be trying to replicate all the great content out there currently, but to have Canterbury specific information hosted here, with links to what we think is all the good stuff! Our approach is definitely going to be .. less is more.
Planning
A good plan is essential. We’ll have a sample plan and template that you can download, and links to further resources.
Funding
Check out our guide to funding options in Canterbury and links to NZ wide sources, plus resources for budgeting and writing a health and safety plan.
Managing Volunteers
People are our greatest asset so it’s super important we find the right ones, to do the right job, and we provide a great environment. We’ll have a handful of tips and links to great resources online.
Marketing and Communications
No one has time for marketing in volunteer groups (unless you make it a role!), so this is going to brief and to the point. What are the must dos, and how do you best tell your story.
Trapping Processes
You’re going to love, or hate this one! This is mostly going to be templates or documentation, for gaining permission to trap on public land, health and safety plans, templates for a trap line “health check” and more!
Trapping
Finally, the good stuff. Recommendations for building the perfect DOC 200 (or 150), where to source the materials locally, and links to all the key info you need to be ninja trappers!
