Outside of work she helps her husband run the farm with 250 sheep and woodland pigs. When she has free time she enjoys playing tennis, netball and going for walks with her three dogs and daughter.

Amy grew up in Newcastle Upon Tyne before moving to Bristol to complete her Veterinary Nursing and Bioveterniary Science degree, graduating in 2019. After staying there for a post graduate year in order to develop her advanced nursing skills, she decided to move back up north, joining us in 2020. Amy’s key areas of interest are anaesthesia and weight management. In her spare time she enjoys the outdoors, pub quizzes, and cuddling her cat Timothy.

Liv grew up in North Yorkshire before moving to Nottingham to start studying and to follow her career of Veterinary Nursing at Nottingham Trent University. She returned back to the north to start her year placement at Forrest house with the hope of graduating in the Summer of 2021 and to carry on being part of the team here! Her key interests in practice (after cuddling the inpatients) involve anaesthesia and microscopy.

Outside of work Liv enjoys baking, travelling, being with family and friends and relaxing with her Sprocker Spaniel Albert and sassy rescue cat Milly.
