Karin Tearle lives in Greenwich, next to Greenwich Park, and runs Belle, a fashion boutique in College Approach.
“I love Greenwich. I love the variety, the people – there’s quite a few eccentric people here. I’ve met some very interesting people from all walks of life and they’ve become my friends,” she explains. “That’s the part of my job that I love.”
However, after almost nine years, Karin has decided to take a break and not to renew her shop lease at the end of this year.
“I’m planning a break for the time being and to see where I go from here.” But before that, Karin will be donning a Santa outfit on December 9th to take part in a charity run in Greenwich Park.
“I’m doing the run for the Rwanda Development Trust. I’ve been a trustee for the charity since 1994 and a voluntary translator and interpretor. I’m also a project co-ordinator, assessing small capacity building projects.”
