He has also volunteered at Kirkley Hall Zoo, gaining experience in a huge range of animals from farm animals to exotics, as well as spending time working in South Africa on a game reserve.
Simon comes from a large Italian family that has its roots in the small village of Spinazzola in Southern Italy.

In his spare time Simon likes to cycle, run and generally keep fit. In the past he has had a range of pets ranging from dogs, small furries and fish. Simon has recently acquired a new addition to his family in the form of a German Shepherd puppy, but he also has a soft spot for dachshunds.
