National Trust of Australia (Queensland)
The National Trust of Australia (Queensland), often simply referred to as the National Trust of Queensland, is a not-for-profit, environmental and heritage charity organization. It plays a significant role in preserving Queensland's natural and cultural heritage, including the protection of native wildlife and threatened species throughout the state.

The organization is dedicated to conserving and advancing both the natural and cultural heritage of Queensland for future generations. This mission is pursued with a strong sense of passion and commitment by a diverse team of volunteers and employees across Queensland.
Governance
The National Trust of Queensland is governed by an independent, skills-based Board of Directors supported by various committees. This structure ensures effective governance and strategic decision-making within the organization.
History
Established in 1963, the National Trust of Queensland is a member of the National Trust of Australia, which federates eight autonomous National Trusts across Australia's states and territories. This historical milestone reflects its commitment to preserving Queensland's heritage from its inception.

🔦 Illuminating Cooktown’s Maritime History! We’re thrilled to announce that Cooktown Museum has received support through the Maritime Museums of Australia Project Support Scheme to help shine a light on an important piece of our local heritage — the Grassy Hill Lighthouse. Thanks to this grant, a detailed model of the Grassy Hill Lighthouse and accompanying interpretation is now on display, offering visitors a closer look at the vital role this beacon played in guiding ships through the treacherous waters of Far North Queensland. 📍 Come visit and discover how maritime history helped shape Cooktown’s past and continues to inspire our future. The Maritime Museums of Australia Project Support Scheme is funded by the Australian Government through the Australian National Maritime Museum and the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts. #CooktownMuseum #MaritimeHistory #GrassyHillLighthouse #AustralianMaritimeHeritage #CooktownQLD #MuseumLife #MMAPSS #LighthouseLove (fb)
🖤💛❤️ National Reconciliation Week begins today through until 3 June Bridging Now to Next This National Reconciliation Week, we reflect on the steps we've taken—and the bridges we must still build—to create a future grounded in truth, equity, and respect. Bridging Now to Next, reflects the ongoing connection between past, present and future and calls on all Australians to step forward together, to look ahead and continue the push forward as past lessons guide us and how we can shape a more inclusive tomorrow. At National Trust of Queensland, we honour the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work and care for heritage, the environment and wildlife. We pay respect to Elders past and present and reaffirm our commitment to listening, learning, and walking together. 🌿 Let’s keep building the bridge—together. #NRW2025 #BridgingNowToNext #ReconciliationWeek #NationalTrustQLD #FirstNationsVoices #TruthTelling #SharedHistory (fb)
