Rachel is the team's token very small person. Tiny in stature and huge in personality, her day job is as a highly committed social worker, dealing with very difficult human situations in a calm and caring way. This is carried over into the team, where she is the glue that holds the team together. When all about are losing their heads, Rachel keeps smiling and pulling it all together. Brought up in rural Lincolnshire, Rachel is quite used to having to perform a quick fix on an ageing tractor and loves 'hands-on' stuff. Rachel is the queen of the checklists and safety inspections, making sure nothing has been missed. She has been a committed member of the team since the very first tests.
