Our story:
Mackay Strathnaver Trust is a family based charitable trust founded on a legacy set up by Dorothy MacKay and Neville Ogg in 1989.
The Mackay Strathnaver logo depicts the region Strathnaver, river and hills in Scotland. Mackay are the clan people of that region. Reay & Jean Mackay were related by marriage to Neville & Shirley Ogg. Foundation money for the Mackay Strathnaver Trust was mostly from the sale of the Mackay land in Tauranga.
Since Neville & Shirley passed away in 2001,
their daughters Andrée Withington & Viv Hill have continued operating the trust with an independent Trustee. Recently, Rhonda Wisbey has been appointed in this position.
