- What is your name and what job do you do at the Centre?
My name is Henrietta Kitt (you can call me Hetty!) and I am the new Fundraiser.
- How long have you worked at the Centre and what made you want to work here?
I have been working at the centre since last Tuesday, only 4days so far! I wanted to work here because having worked with Guide Dogs for the Blind before, I think the type of people that love Animals and humans alike are some of the most lovely people around and are excellent people to work with. ARC is a wonderful charity and the team are great, who wouldn’t want to work here?
- What sort of horse experience do you have?
Very little! I had some horse riding lessons as a child but nothing as an adult. But I would love to know more as I find horses very interesting creatures.
- What do you do when you aren’t working at the Centre?
I have my own business called ‘Hetty’s Tea Party’. I attend food markets and festivals selling my award winning brownies, cakes, tarts and scones. When I’m not baking cake, you’ll probably find me eating it! I love food!
I’m currently also planning a wedding, I’m getting married to my boyfriend of 9 years on April 17th.
- Who do you admire?
Jamie Oliver. He’s got an infectious passion for good food but also gets behind a worthy cause and believes in the best in people.
But generally, I admire anyone with a passion for something and a sunny outlook on life!
- What’s your hidden talent?
I can make a weird folded up shape with my tongue!
- Who would play you in the film version of your life, and what would it be called?
Zooey Deschanel because she’s a bit nuts like me! It would be called Henrie-ate-a-Kit-Kat, because I have been haunted with that nic name since primary school!
