Diane, who started work as the receptionist for Yorkshire Wildlife Park, now works as a lion keeper and is featured in Fabulous magazine’s ‘It happened to me.’

Hayley Taylor (The Fairy Job Mother) stars in Woman magazine’s weight-loss feature.

Just to remind you all that I am currently available Wednesdays through to Sundays until September when my availability goes back to normal and I would love to hear from you.
