AGM 8 October
Thank you to all who attended our AGM on 8 October and thank you to TWIMS for providing us with a good venue for the function. We enjoyed an extremely interesting talk from Jarryd Streicher, a post doctoral researcher from UKZN, on his research with small mammals and caracal in our area. We also heard presentations on the work of the conservancy and our financial situation from chairperson, Tony Kee, treasurer, Sonya Keyser, secretary, Betsy Kee, and committee member, Heather Balcomb.
A peek at what the Conservancy does with with the money you donate: Bongani Mkhize and Isaac Maachi clearing huge stands of invasive sword fern on one of the Everton sites which houses endangered Stangeria cycads.
In June, Ant and Betsy Kee led a guided walk through parts of the Molweni Gorge as part of the eThekwini celebrationof World Environment Week. They were joined by a large group of Hash Harriers and several members of the community.

1.Can I bring my dog to walk in the Conservancy?
Dogs are very welcome in the Everton Park and the Eskotene Grassland. However, they are NOT permitted on the Gorge trails because of the impact that their presence will have on our precious wildlife.
2. How much does it cost to walk one of the trails?
We currently do not charge an entry fee to make use of our beautiful open spaces. However, we are a non-profit organisation and our work is reliant on donations so please be generous. See the details under Donations in this website or make use of the Zapper signs at our trails and parks.
3. What time do the areas open?
Our parks and trails are currently unfenced, so access is any time but your safety is at your own risk.
4. Where do I park to walk in the Molweni Gorge?
There is a limited amount of free parking at the Acutts Bridge. Parking is at your own risk and please do not park in a manner that impedes traffic flow.
