LOVING WORDS

“When we started thinking about documenting this project, I was hoping we would get a chance to work with Rebecca...

Community values are at the core of the Love Rimurimu project and the project team was hesitant to 'give' our story to just anyone. In addition to her outstanding ability to synthesise a variety of storylines into one that captures a general audience, Rebecca is very aware about the intricacies of working with and telling stories about community groups, science and the environment."
