Friends groups play a vital role in the life of botanic gardens. Their ongoing support, advocacy and fundraising efforts help gardens thrive – not just as beautiful public spaces, but as centres of conservation, education and community connection. Whether funding critical projects, championing local engagement, or enabling staff to grow through professional development, Friends are true partners in the future of botanic gardens. Their contributions strengthen our sector and ensure gardens remain vibrant, resilient and relevant for generations to come.
We recognise that many Friends groups support staff to attend the BGANZ Congress, and this year we want to ensure that we formally acknowledge that support.
If your Friends contribute financially to getting team members to the BGANZ Congress in 2025 they will be acknowledged as a Delegate Sponsor.
Friends groups can register their support by completing the simple confirmation form below.
