Conversation recorded in October 2016 with then  Governor of Western Australia, Her Excellency, The Honorable Kerry Sanderson AC , who has had a distinguished career in government and business, and has been a driving force behind the creation of the WA Parks Foundation www.ourwaparks.org.au

Western Australian’s National Parks and nature reserves cover an area bigger than the state of Victoria. The Parks are known and loved for their spectacular scenery, diverse plant and animal life, and the unique experiences they offer.

The Parks are administered by the State Government Department of Parks and Wildlife. To support them in this huge undertaking, the WA Parks Foundation has been created so that together we can make a real difference and help everyone enjoy our wonderful outdoor lifestyle and protect our parks for future generations.
