Karen quit her job as a banker to care for animals

After a long, successful career in banking, Karen needed a fresh start. She made herself redundant and began following her passion for people and animals. Today, she enjoys a fulfilling new life full of adventures, including writing a children’s book series based off of the true stories of her rescue Staffie, Dodger Dog. Watch the amazing story of Karen (and Dodger!) in this 1000 Londoners film!

This film is part of 1000 Londoners, a ten-year digital project which aims to create a digital portrait of a city through 1000 of the people who identify themselves with it. The profile contains a 3 minute film that gives an insight into the life of the Londoner, as well as their personal photos of London and some answers to crucial questions about their views on London life. Over the course of the project we aim to reveal as many facets of the capital as possible, seeing city life from 1000 points of view.
