Dingwall Trust is a Child, Youth and Family approved support service based in Papatoetoe, Auckland, New Zealand. The Trust is a multi-programme agency that provides care for children and young people referred there by private families and government agencies and works with families in their own homes.[2] It also operates residential homes where caregivers provide day-to-day supervision and support.[1]
Its facilities in Papatoetoe are located on an approximately 8-hectare site.[1]
The Dingwall Presbyterian Orphanage Trust Board was founded in 1927 on the execution of David Dingwall's will.
The Dingwall Trust School opened in 1996, having operated as a home schooling unit from October 1993, with Anne Stevens as head teacher.[2]
In March 2005, the organisation celebrated its 75th anniversary.
