We know recent changes have brought a lot of questions and uncertainties to our farming community. youngsRPS, Armstrong Watson Accountants and Hexham and Northern Marts invite you to join us for a cuppa and a bacon roll where we can discuss the issues you’re facing, share insights, and provide some clarity.

This is an open space for farmers and landowners to talk with experts and each other about the impacts and opportunities ahead. Let’s sit down together over coffee, share concerns, and explore practical solutions.

Today is Veterinary Receptionist Appreciation Day 👏🎉

We are so grateful to our brilliant receptionist/technician/support team, today and the rest.

A big thank you to Vikki, Helen, Sheena, Hannah and Alex who work so hard. From manning the desk to keeping everything running smoothly, wrangling sheep and making sure we don’t get lost on the road - they can do it all.

Honourable mention to the reception welcoming committee pictured below - what they lack in work ethic they make up for in tail wags! 🐕
