A former police constable has swapped her truncheon for a trowel as the head of BBOWT's Wild Bicester and Wild Banbury community action groups.
After years cleaning up the streets as a Thames Valley Police officer, Veritie Turner is now helping people get their hands dirty to connect with nature.
The mum-of-two started her tenure by leading a series of winter wellbeing walks in Bicester and has been inundated with calls from Banbury residents wanting to get involved.
