THE STELLAR TRUST

The Stellar Trust’s vision is to help eradicate the use of pure methamphetamine or P and prevent the damage it causes to

New Zealand society.

The Trust’s own research shows around one in five New Zealanders know someone in their immediate circle of family, friends and workmates who has been addicted to or damaged by P.  A similar number of New Zealanders has been a victim of or know someone affected by a P related crime.

The Trust was formed to help reduce and stop those awful statistics and the stories and damage that lie behind them.

You can help the Trust by your participation in this event.  You can also assist The Stellar Trust by visiting their website www.stellartrust.co.nz There you find more information about the Trust and how you can help.

Also you can purchase the fantastic Chocolate Recipe Book – Pure Indulgence, at the Stellar Trust stand. All proceeds from the sale of this book go to the Stellar Trust.
