Our Careers Manager, Ruthie Peterson, sat down to talk with dairy farmer Gaynor Wellwood about her extensive experience of offering work experience to veterinary and agriculture students at her farm in Leicestershire.

The conversation covers how work experience benefits the business that offers it, what can be done to ensure it's successful for all participants, and how to ensure all participants are safe while involved.
