Our Team Langford Vets encourages a community spirit and excellent learning opportunities.

Fran qualified as a registered veterinary nurse in 2011 after completing the Veterinary Nursing and Practice Administration degree at Bristol University. Langford Veterinary Practice was Fran’s training practice and she is so happy to be back and see so many familiar faces and be part of a team who share the same high standards and values as she does.

Outside of work Fran enjoys spending time with her beagle, springer spaniel, spotty horse and noisy cat.

Carol may be a familiar voice when you call the practice as she has worked with us before as receptionist from 2009 until 2014.

During her time away from Stables Equine Practice Carol has worked in farm animal veterinary practice, the National Hunt Racing industry, and a horse rescue charity, so is well-placed to help with your enquiries and diary bookings.

Owner of two ex-racehorses and four dogs, her time away from the front desk is usually spent caring for her animals and their constant demands!

Helen began her journey with Langford Vets in 2013, starting out as an Animal Care Assistant in the Small Animal Hospital. Her passion for animal care quickly grew, and she soon moved over to Langford Vet Practice to begin her nurse training. In 2018, she proudly qualified and registered as a Veterinary Nurse. She spent several years in the first opinion practice, building her skills and confidence, before moving into the Small Animal Hospital where she worked closely with surgical and neurology patients.

In 2021, Helen followed her passion for rehabilitation and completed her Level 3 Certificate in Canine Hydrotherapy. She then joined a dedicated rehab clinic, helping pets regain strength and mobility after surgery. Even while working elsewhere, she stayed connected to Langford, regularly picking up nursing shifts across both the hospital and practice.

Late 2025, Helen decided to return to Langford part-time, combining her love for hands-on nursing with her external rehab work. She has a soft spot for senior pets, enjoys being involved in surgical care, and is always excited to support patients on their road to recovery.

Cara-May graduated from the University of Surrey in 2021 and was accepted onto the PDSA graduate scheme upon qualifying. She spent two years working in PDSA hospitals in Edinburgh and Glasgow before completing a rotating internship at the University of Edinburgh’s Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies. Following her internship, she provided veterinary care for animals under the care of the Scottish SPCA before joining Langford Vets in 2025.
