Well-Being For Dog Groomers, The Podcast
Episode 45 - Mary Burton & Mandy Carr ... Astro Brain Tumour Fund & Their Fundraising Walk 2024
This week I am talking to Mandy Carr, From the Scissor Boutique and Mary Burton From the Astro Brain Tumour Fund.
Having a loved one getting diagnosed or being diagnosed yourself is a daunting and worrying time. So after experiencing the events that The Astro Brain Tumour Fund have put on with Mandy over the years, I thought they are a charity that need to be spoken about!
We talk about who they are, how they help with research, education and support for the patients and friends/families, and the fundraising they to. Mandy offers some of her lived experience of living with brain tumours both physically and emotionally.

Today we are discussing the negative comments we see online about our industry, they are not helpful because I feel they put people off attending events and therefore contribute to blocking ,them from making connections, continuing education & allowing the person to develop as a groomer. My guests are Tanya Sala’s, experienced and successful competitor and organise of the Irish competition ‘Groomers Got Talent’ and Jo Silk Smith who is our English Groom Team Silk Coat Handstrip member for the second term running!
