With a broadcasting career spanning more than three decades, she has become one of the UK’s most respected voices on animal welfare, lifestyle programming and social issues, combining warmth, authority and genuine passion both on and off screen.

Wendy first came to national prominence presenting Channel 4’s hugely successful Pet Rescue, a role she held for seven years, making her one of the country’s most recognisable faces in animal television. She also fronted Absolutely Animals, Pet Rescue Roadshow, Family Pet Rescue, Your Kids Are In Charge, You Do Too, The Last Word and the acclaimed BBC documentary Hitting Home, which explored domestic abuse and reflected Wendy’s own commitment to raising awareness of the issue.

More recently, Wendy has continued to present and produce factual entertainment, including Crafty Beggars and Brits Rescue Romanian Dogs, demonstrating her versatility across lifestyle, factual and documentary programming while remaining closely associated with the causes she cares about most.

She is an ambassador or patron for several leading animal welfare organisations and continues to use her public profile to champion the protection and wellbeing of animals both in the UK and internationally.

Wendy is also a passionate campaigner for survivors of domestic abuse and mental health awareness. Drawing on her own personal experiences, she has become an inspiring speaker, helping to break down stigma while encouraging others to seek support and speak openly about their experiences. Her honesty and compassion have earned her enormous respect from audiences, charities and fellow campaigners alike.

An accomplished author as well as a broadcaster, Wendy has written several books for both adults and children, including fiction and lifestyle titles inspired by her lifelong commitment to animal welfare and social issues. She is also an experienced event host, keynote speaker and awards presenter, bringing professionalism, warmth and humour to every appearance.
