Emma lives near Raglan with her partner and children. She has a menagerie of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, goats and geese to keep her busy! When she does have time Emma goes dancing and is very hands on with home improvements, doing all her own DIY.

Jo Williams

Jo has worked for many years as an experienced RVN at Drybridge, after completing her training here.

Jo lives with her husband and son in Trelleck, not to mention a household of dogs and a stable full of horses.
