Kevin Roche
Supporter
Kevin has for many years been involved with the running of institutional and community boards in a professional and voluntary capacity. He is a long-time resident of Leithfield Beach and Amberley areas and is currently Secretary/Treasurer for Northern Pegasus Bay (Hurunui) Coastcare Inc.
He started planting native trees initially under the auspices of the Leithfield Beach Residents Association and since 2023 as part of the Coastcare group. This group’s area of interest extends from north of the Waipara River south to Ashworth’s Beach.
Kevin has been a leader in the creation of the walkway/cycleway north of Leithfield beach, which has seen about 5000 native trees planted along a 1.2km length of track. Now retired, he enjoys getting out in nature and is keen to see native flora and fauna enhanced and protected throughout the Coastcare area.
