Swimming alert at Fitzroy Beach
Please don’t swim or gather food at Fitzroy Beach.
Testing of the water at the beach by Taranaki Regional Council on 9 December returned elevated levels of the potentially-harmful bacteria.
We’re sorry this will inconvenience people hoping to spend the weekend at Fitzroy Beach.
Check our Can I Swim page for information on other beaches.
We do this by making financial investments to organisations and individuals operating within, and benefiting the people and district of New Plymouth.
To help understand how we can invest in your group or initiative, please read our Community Funding Investment Policy.
Not only do we manage a number of grants which community groups and individuals can apply for, we work with the community to help groups to plan for the future and respond to the changing needs of the community.
We are part of a regional initiative, called the Wheelhouse, aimed at providing a joint approach to building great community groups. The Wheelhouse website has been designed to enable community groups to become stronger and more sustainable by finding the right information. Make the Wheelhouse your first port of call.
