Amelia Newby

Veterinary Technician

Amelia grew up on the family farm in North Yorkshire. After many years working on different livestock and arable systems she joined Howells as a paraprofessional in August 2022 to pursue and combine her passion for livestock and the Agricultural industry. She enjoys the variety that her role entails…… no two days are the same, the role is so varied and can involve being away scanning pigs, TB Testing, or blood sampling calves to name a few. In her free time Amelia enjoys working her gun dogs and breeding pedigree Texels.
