Pip Williams, they/them

Fabian George Blake Rivers, he/him
Doctor of Vet Med/Veterinary Surgeon (Focus and training in exotics), Fabian, is also back with us for a second year.
“Working with ASN is not only fun and enjoyable but also essential work. Empowering people with the capacity to make proactive choices about their bodies with support, care and love is how we all should live and ASN is a champion of that very message. Also I love seeing people’s family members do cute things so very happy to be part of this as always!”

Rohanie Campbell-Thakoordin, she/her
I’m originally from Birmingham and based in Edinburgh after graduating from Edinburgh college of art. I’m mixed Irish and Indian-Caribbean, like to go hiking, crocheting and drinking coffee and am passionate about reproductive justice. My work is part journally doodles, part pet portraits and musings that come to me when being blown off the top of the peatland hills.
