Jacqui Tipping
Practice Administrator
Jacqui has been with the practice since the mid-1990s when it was still owned by Stuart Easby and Matt Brash.

At the weekends she enjoys embroidery, gardening and getting out into the countryside, and seems to spend a lot of time watching cricket, not always when she chooses to!
