Following is a selection of projects which have received Alterno’s support. If your idea is unlike any of these, that’s not a bad thing!
Our primary areas of interest are: HEALTH FITNESS NUTRITION EDUCATION
But we do also support ideas and projects outside these areas which we perceive can have a major impact on making New Zealand a better place to live, work and play.
Being developed in 2023/2024 is a significant new trail linking Arrowtown to Arthurs Point and down the Shotover River to Tucker Beach .
