Our Team

Beth

I am the founder and full-time manager of the charity. I run the rescue day to day, in charge of managing adoptions, fostering, rabbit care, boarding, grooming, admin, emails, social media, fundraising and more! I also am the director of The National Rabbit Festival where I am able to share the mission of the rescue on a national level. These animals are my life, and I am dedicated to being their advocate.

Rob

I was the first on board with Beth’s crazy rabbit rescue dream! I help to provide facilities management, healthcare support and work daily to look after the rabbits located at Ivy Dene Rabbit Rescue’s main address. I help to manage the operational activities to ensure the smooth running of the rescue which could include anything from covering for some of Beth’s managerial duties, to organising and transporting some of the rescue equipment.

Vicky

Hi! I am the rescue’s numbers person. I am the director of an accountancy practice and so my skills are really useful for us as a charity, plus I am also completely bunny mad with 4 of my own rescue bunnies. I first met Beth when I transported some rabbits to Ivy Dene, our paths crossed a few more times in various rescue situations, and I’m really pleased to be on the board of trustees

Jo

Hi, my name is Jo and my day job is a human nurse but caring for rabbits is my favourite! I got to know Beth and the Ivy Dene team after a few consecutive rescue efforts. I live with a fabulous fluffle of four and I also intermittently host some lovely foster rabbits. I'm proud to be onboard, striving for better rabbit welfare for everybun! I have a special interest in the data of rescues and bonding support.

Eden

Hi, my name is Eden! I have been making friends with bunnies most my life and will not be stopping anytime soon! I work in charity marketing with a lot of experience in all things digital so becoming a trustee for Ivy Dene is a dream come true as I can use my skills to help out some of the bunnies that I can't take home, though I'd happily have them all if I could!

Lucy

Hi, I'm Lucy! I've been a bunny guardian for most of my adult life, and found Ivy Dene when looking to add to our bunny family. In my day job I'm a data analyst, spending my time making sense of numbers and using statistics to inform decision making, so I love being able to bring these skills to support the welfare of rabbits.
