Letitia became Manager of the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust in December 2025. She is looking forward to building on the Trust’s important work, engaging with the community, supporting restoration projects, and advocating for the estuary’s wildlife and habitats.

She brings experience of managing a charitable trust in Selwyn where she worked with landowners and volunteers to restore native habitats.

Letitia has a strong connection to the coast and waterways of Ōtautahi. She enjoys gardening, spending time near the sea and rivers while walking her dog and kayaking and camping around Banks Peninsula.
