An Evening with Rosie Page & Yorkshire Vet Peter Wright

Join Yorkshire Vet Peter Wright and Rosie Page, the daughter of Alf Wight, for an entertaining and informative evening about their lives and careers followed by an audience Q&A session.

Peter Wright was born in Thirsk and has spent nearly all of his working life as a veterinary surgeon in the town. In the early years of his career, he was proud to work for what affectionately became known as “The Herriot Practice”.

Rosie Page was born and raised in Thirsk. Her late father was the Thirsk veterinary surgeon, Alf Wight, who went on to become famous as the author James Herriot. After qualifying as a doctor, she came home to North Yorkshire, and spent the majority of her working life as a GP in Thirsk.

The show will be raising funds for the Forum and Herriot Hospice.
