About us
NSW Trustee & Guardian protects, promotes and supports the rights, dignity, choices and wishes of the people of NSW.
The agency supports the Chief Executive Officer and the Public Guardian to provide customer-centred services to the people of NSW, including some of the state’s most vulnerable.
We do this by providing a range of multidisciplinary services including Will-making, trustee, financial management and guardianship services.
We write more than 13,000 estate planning documents each year, support over 47,000 customers annually and manage over six billion dollars in customer assets.
A NSW government agency within the Stronger Communities Cluster, our services help support and protect people at critical moments in their lives.
