  • Descrição

    My main passions in life are enjoying time in and protecting nature, animals and their welfare, health and wellbeing and adventure. I'm a retired nurse and wellbeing coach and have run a blog and walks for wellbeing previously. I've been vegan since 2018 and have been mainly plant based for decades. I have mainly had cats as pets in recent years and dogs when younger though have walked some of my neighbours dogs and used to groom and ride regularly on a friends horse.

    I also get involved in protecting our planet locally and helped to set up Wilder Bramley to re wild areas of our village, in conjunction with the Wildlife Trust. We received an award for our achievements.

    This last year or so I've been doing more international travel and started by visiting Thailand in April 2024 alone to do some eco tours using sustainable transport and then Australia to spend time with friends. I focused on doing animal activities such as visiting ethical elephant parks, turtle protection sites and 2 wildlife sanctuaries in the Queensland area as well as visiting a rain forest to see glow worms. As I liked Australia so much I returned for 5 months last September seeing Bali on route and did gardening and animal care at 2 workaway projects in rainforests in Corndale NSW and then Tallybudgera in Queensland. I also visited Fiji and Singapore. After leaving Australia in February 2025 I had a month at home then went to Portugal to do another workaway at a vegan animal sanctuary for a month in the Spring. I'm now making my next travel plans to Bali and Australia.

    I have always travelled extensively throughout my life and for the last decade or two this has been to Europe in a camper van. Previously I have loved going on safari in Africa and have also worked on various projects in India and South America with Operation Raleigh. As well as Australia I hope to visit eastern Malaysia / Borneo to see Orangutans at some point to do some rainforest treks to observe wildlife.

    To keep fit I swim which I particularly love, cycle, walk and do regular yoga and gym classes. I'm outgoing and enjoy meeting new people and taking on interesting challenges.

  • Quais são suas habilidades?

    I'm a very practical, creative and resourceful person. I'm reliable and responsible and put 100% into anything I do. I'm outgoing, enthusiastic and good with people and animals and enjoy a variety of interests in life.

    Having been a nurse I've got good medical knowledge and hands on experience and am not afraid to take action in an emergency.

    I'm a member of a local badger protection group and RSPB group and have campaigned to protect nature and for animal rights issues.

    I have had pets such as cats currently and dogs previously and have previously riden and looked after horses. On a recent trip to Thailand I helped feed and prepare food and supplements for elephants.

    I am computer literate and have a full UK driving licence.
