	National Trust of Australia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the Australian national level there is a secretariat, the Australian Council of National Trusts (ACNT), that was formed in 1965.
		The National Trust of Australia is a community-based, non-government organisation, committed to promoting and conserving Australia's indigenous, natural and historic heritage through its advocacy work and its custodianship of heritage places and objects.
		At the state level there are eight Australian State and Territory National Trusts in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia.

	National Trust of Australia (W.A.)
		Under the National Trust of Australia (WA) Act (1964), the National Trust (Western Australia) was established as an educational institution with an advocacy role, a custodial role involving property management, and an ability to acquire property through vesting and other methods.
		The National Trust uses its public membership to raise community awareness and appreciation of heritage values, and to identify, describe and - in some cases - manage vested heritage properties.
		With a strong volunteer ethos and a wide membership base, the National Trust represents the community and is a body corporation with a chairman and councillors elected by the membership.

	East Perth Cemeteries, Western Australia - National Trust of Australia (W.A.)
		Over time, the National Trust has come to recognise that children will play a vital role in the future of conservation and most recently it has developed a series of heritage education packages to introduce students to the treasures of the past and to empower them to become actively involved in conserving their heritage.
		Between 1993 and 1994 the Trust began an on-going programme to train teams of volunteer guides and after the cemeteries were officially vested in the National Trust in 1994, they were opened to the public on a regular basis with guided tours.
		From the outset, the Trust was a voluntary and community based organisation and was founded in Western Australia as a result of the efforts of a number of private citizens.

	Heritage icons
		In the spring of 1865 South Australia’s Surveyor-General, George Goyder, was instructed to survey the State’s north and ‘lay down on a map, the line of demarcation between that portion of the country where the rainfall has extended, and that where the drought prevails’.
		Unique in Australia as the largest fresh produce retail market under one roof, the 250 traders of the 132year-old Adelaide Central Market and the hustle and bustle of its vibrant setting is another South Australian icon.
		And ‘Goyder’s Line of Rainfall’, unique to South Australia, was to become recognised as the divide between land that would support growing crops and that which, at best, received only enough rainfall to support grazing.

	About the National Trust
		Although established under an Act of Parliament in South Australia in 1955, the National Trust is not a Government body and relies on membership fees, sponsorship and museum entry fees for its survival.
		The National Trust operates under the National Trust Act of 1955 but is independent of Government and does not report to any Government agency other than those that might provide it with funding for specific conservation projects.
		Consequently the National Trust oversees bed and breakfast accommodation, function centres, fully operational pubs, horticultural developments as well as a large number of public museums and folk history collections.
