PODIATRY

Originally from Blackburn, I graduated with my Podiatry BSc from Salford Univeristy in 2015 and began working privately. During 2020 I meet Nick when his family would come and visit our daily scenes with Ed and Ted aka The Moor Bears and subsequently joined The Moorside Clinic.

At the moment my spare time is taken up by muddling my way through parenthood and discovering that my young son will find a way to disrupt any attempt at watching my TV favourite, the classic murder mystery.

RECEPTIONIST/ADMIN

Having worked in Early Years for 35 years in partnership with SMBC and MCC including running her own pre-school business for 8 years, Jayne's career moved in a very different direction in 2015 when she joined the team at The Moorside Clinic as a receptionist, combined with another new role as carer for her mother.

Jayne states: The most rewarding side of her role at the clinic is meeting people and juggling appointments to suit everyone’s individual needs.

In her spare time she enjoys travelling around watching her 3 adult ‘children’ play semi-professional football and meeting up with friends in the many café-bars in Heaton Moor.

In her spare time with family and friends, Mandy enjoys eating out and going to the theatre, but most of all walking her two dogs Teddy and Bear!
