Nic Vallance

Nicola Vallance was the media manager for the Department of Conservation (2005–2010). She appeared on TV ONE's Good Morning show on Wednesdays to chat about the walks, wild places and wildlife of New Zealand.

From September 2007 – 2010, she appeared as the presenter of "Meet the Locals", a series of four-minute clips about New Zealand's wild places and wildlife on TVNZ 6.

Nicola Vallance left the Department of Conservation in March 2010, after the National Government signalled their intention to mine in national parks and other significant conservation areas previously off-limits to mining interests. She used to work for the Royal Forest and Bird Protection Society (Forest & Bird) as a Conservation Advocate. She now works for Fonterra.
