"New Zealand has given me a massive opportunity to be something completely different". Mount Vic Hub coordinator Patricia Given came to Wellington with decades of experience in the fashion industry, and swiftly became a hugely respected community leader.
Trish is passionate about making things happen in the community and last year was awarded an Absolutely Positively Wellingtonian Award for her contribution to a long list of organisations including Cycle Wellington, Wellington Irish, the Innermost Gardens, Predator Free Wellington, and many more. She's often seen around town on her bike Olive, towing the hublet: a mobile community centre.
Here she chats in the studio with B-Sides host Sadie Coe and City Councillor Laurie Foon.
