Waikato Burn Support is located in Hamilton, New Zealand.  We call our region the Waikato because that is the name of one of the largest rivers in the country - and it flows right through our town!  That also explains why we are called the "Waikato" Burn Support.  

If you would like to find out a little more about Hamilton, New Zealand and the Waikato please visit this page or click the map: More about where in the world we are!   You may also like to visit the Hamilton Info link - see the small banner just above - where you can also learn more about our fair city and region.  But be sure to bookmark this site first so that you can return and visit with us again!
