How one woman’s passion for tidying up her local community has had a transformative impact
Plan for Peace works closely with community changemakers across the UK to build locally-led community infrastructures through its Changemakers in Turbulent Times programme.
This is the story of Tirza Meinema – changemaker and community hero. A few years ago, Tirza started picking up litter in her local neighbourhood. Now, she has built a thriving community across Slough who are passionate about tackling unnecessary waste. From launching second-hand markets to running an upcycled fashion show, and supported by a Plan for Peace seed grant, Tirza is tirelessly committed to being the change she wants to see in Slough.
