Upon graduating in 2015 with a First Class Honours degree and an award for academic excellence, Emily was successful in securing a place at the prestigious Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies in Edinburgh to read Veterinary Medicine and Surgery.
During her time at Reaseheath, Emily was given the opportunity to complete a work placement with the Nantwich Veterinary Group at their Equine Centre and it was here that her passion form veterinary medicine was kindled.
Her placement led to an offer of employment at the equine centre, with Emily staying on as Yard Manager and as a Veterinary Nurse.
