Alex, September Stock Manager
Hi, I’m Alex, a third-year student staying on the committee.
I used to work as an aquarium curator and scuba diving instructor, so I’m more accustomed to very different animals than those we see at VIC!
I love seeing the impact we have on our clients’ and patients’ lives, and it motivates me through a week of lectures.

Qualified Staff

Kerry Williams
I joined the university in January 2019, having worked in small animal practice for 18 years. I particularly enjoy surgery, and charity medicine.
I am passionate about providing accessible, high quality veterinary care, and teaching students real life clinical skills - Vets in the Community combines these two things perfectly. I do seem to have habit of bringing rain to the clinics!
Outside of work I will usually be found cycling, gardening, or baking. I have a rescue dog & cat, and a guinea pig.

Phil Hammond
My name is Phil Hammond and I qualified as Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2004, I worked in private practice covering 1st opinion and referral work and some Out of hour's emergency work. I had a short stint work as a transport officer for the ambulance service with a view to do paramedic training but eventually came back to the animals.
In 2010 I took up a position as a technician at the University of Nottingham vet school where I realised I had a passion for teaching and have since worked up to a position of teaching associate in clinical skills.
I wanted to still be part of some clinical work and Vet in the community allows me to do that whilst passing on my wisdom to the new students.

Beth Lee
I’m Beth & I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2019. I worked in a few, busy first opinion practices before joining Nottingham Vet School in 2023 and started at ViC a month into my career here!
I predominantly teach on campus with the odd day in clinics with our final years here and there. I enjoy all elements of my role, but in particular, my interests are feline nursing, rabbits/guinea pigs and preventative medicine.
I love coming along to ViC, supporting our students and meeting our wonderful clients and their pets.

Chris Hawke
Hi my name is Chris. I was reminded recently I am the longest-serving person on the ViC team, and was involved in setting up ViC over a decade ago. My full time job is literally being on the streets assisting those in need – in my full-time job we deal with ViC clients and potential clients on a daily basis.
Working closely with the Vets, the student Committee especially the President and the student Outreach Officer I have the privilege of supporting with Outreach – in person on the streets.
I believe Outreach is a crucial part of ViC. I have confidence that students who partake in Outreach learn more, they develop a better understanding of the very harsh and cruel realities of life on the streets and why the work of everyone involved with ViC is so important in making a positive difference to those in need.
