Leisl lives in Wiltshire with her  cocker Tassel.

Originally a visiting volunteer at her local Children’s Hospital with Muppet, she joined the board of Trustees in April 2018.

She actively recruits new assessors for the charity and has been part of the working committee to implement the Kennel Club’s Bark & Read Standards of Practice.

When she’s not working full time, she can usually be found fishing Tassel out of a muddy puddle somewhere.
