Today we're joined by Elizabeth Webley who lives in Woburn, Lower Hutt with her partner and 6 year old daughter. Anyone who has walked along the waterfront or on any of the many trails around the city and thought how beautiful and well kept they are... That's all thanks to Elizabeth. She's the Waterfront & City Parks Specialist at Wellington City Council. We're impressed!
Her family, naturally, spends a lot of time outdoors running and cycling and love doing orienteering on the weekend. She tells us a bit more about that and also about the #PeakBragging initiative.
