In January 1999 she moved to Dewsbury and District Hospital where she worked for 4 years developing a community paediatric post.

In April 2003 she left Dewsbury to work as a locum Dietitian. This gave her the flexibility she needed to spend time developing her private practice.

In December 2003 she set up the company and now works solely as a private dietitian. Her work has included article writing, radio interviews, training, conference work and menu analysis.
