Debbie has been working at The Pines since 2009 as a part-time receptionist. Prior to working here she was at the Maidenhead Advertiser. Debbie really enjoys making and decorating cakes, which means she needs a lot of practice – practice that the rest of the team are happy to taste test for her! She plays Crib one evening a week and enjoys not only the game, but the social aspect of it too. She also has a pet tortoise called Tommy.
