Karen knows Canterbury inside out.

Karen utilizes her flexible schedule to be an active volunteer of the Cancer Society by driving cancer patients to Christchurch for treatment and assisting with fundraising activities. A highlight is her co-ordination of well-known Cancer Society fundraiser – Relay for Life.
In her spare time, Karen enjoys walking, water skiing, golf and catching up with friends. She also enjoys golf and is a member of the Ashburton Golf Club’s Promotions Committee.
A recent addition to the McRae/Niles family is a dear wee Schnoodle puppy called Indie - she is very much loved and spoilt.
