Antarctic Heritage Trust
The Antarctic Heritage Trust is an independent charitable trust that was established in 1987 for the purpose of conserving the legacy of the Ross Sea region of Antarctica by the first Antarctic explorers – Norwegian Carsten Borchgrevinck and British explorers, Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton.
In 2003, the New Zealand Government agreed to provide ongoing funding towards the Trust's operational costs to enable the Trust to free up resources to secure overseas funding towards its restoration project. This project is aimed at the restoration, preservation, and protection of the historic huts, sites and artefacts related to the Ross Sea Region.
