Garry Moore

Personal Bio

Garry Moore has been the Mayor of Christchurch since 1998.

Garry has a keen interest in youth, and as Mayor, has worked on a number of youth-focused initiatives.

In the past few years he has been heavily involved in the Mayors Task Force for Jobs, an employment programme offering young people a sense of hope for the future.

The programme has a “Zero Waste” focus for New Zealanders under the age of 25, and is an initiative Garry is particularly proud of.

Garry is an influential member of the Wayne Francis Charitable Trust, and as a Trustee, aims to bring new ideas and constantly look ahead to the future.

“Wayne Francis was an entrepreneur and this Trust behaves the same way. It gives us, as Trustees, the freedom to be flexible and innovative, which is not always possible with many trusts.”
