Cathy Campbell
Practice Administrator
Cathy has worked at Haygate since 2010 starting at Muxton then moving into Wellington administration. Cathy has an unnatural number of cats in her house meaning that it is very difficult to sit down on any sofas! Most of her cats have been acquired since she started at Haygate. Cathy is the official Mother Christmas of Haygate and turns her office into a true Santa’s grotto complete with reindeer, often starting to prepare in July!
Mandy Pullen

Mandy has worked with Haygate since 2011 starting as the Muxton receptionist and then moving into the admin office in 2016 and was a finalist in Support Staff of the Year.

Mandy has two cats who are learning tricks such as sit and beg – we will ask her for proof of this!

She has spent all of her working life in the equine industry working directly with the horses, and more recently in the saddlery trade. Norma has two dogs, Crumble, an elderly chocolate Labrador, and Spike, a very feisty Jack Russell who likes nothing better than to accompany her on runs, especially off road and cross country.
