Karen is the backbone of F.O.R.C.E (For Our Real Clean Environment) which organises the popular Love Whangarei Monthly Clean Up and the new Repair Cafe Whangārei. She also somehow juggles a full-time job and raising a toddler with her partner, Councillor Nicholas Connop.
Karen says the secret is to make it fun: "People motivate and encourage others and get encouraged and motivated in return. Anyone can take part - just start small and encourage others and you'll be amazed at the results."
KNZB says "The vision of F.O.R.C.E is to treat waste as a resource, and Karen lives and breathes that vision! Karen has a passion for reducing waste in the environment, and that passion inspires others to do better too." Anyone who has been to one of their clean-ups or the Repair Cafe will agree!
Thank you Karen and everyone who volunteers to keep Whangārei beautiful - we love the difference you make.

The new page includes 70 categories of household items and how to recycle or dispose of them - everything from hard-hats to childrens' car seats, from bras to mobile phones, business clothing, bicycles, bubble wrap and tin cans. You might be surprised what can be re-used or recycled!
