Eco Educate founder Lesley Ottey has spent the last 14 years challenging Waimakariri’s young – and not so young – to rethink waste and has no plans to slow down anytime soon.

Each of Waimakariri’s residents on average is dumping almost 70kg less rubbish when compared to 2017.

This Earth Day, Council is proud to share the district's progress towards a more sustainable future. We've achieved significant milestones in reducing landfill waste and empowering our community to make eco-conscious choices, thanks to collaborative efforts between the council and passionate residents.
