BORN and bred in rural Lincolnshire, it’s no wonder Zareena Hyder yearned for her two children Hyder, seven, and Haris four, to experience a childhood that’s set amongst the beautiful backdrop of the Chiltern Hills. After three years in Slough, Zareena, 35 and her husband Dr Kaiser Munir, 36, moved their family out to Chartridge in favour of ‘long country walks, fresh eggs and pressed organic apple juice.’

As a young couple, the doctor duo began their medical careers in the busy City of Leeds. However, since having children they have strived for ‘a life that’s closer to nature,’ so the young family now spend their down time ‘riding bikes, growing their own fruit and vegetables and eating in a range of local cafes and restaurants. Zareena explains: “After having children we wanted more outdoor space, the Chilterns was a perfect location with some fantastic parks, walking trails and farms, whilst also having great access into London by road and Tube.”

Having recently taken on the role of local GP at Water Meadow Surgery in Chesham, Zareena previously worked at Farnham Road Surgery in Slough where she became a star of Channel 5’s hit ‘observational documentary’ GPs Behind Closed Doors.
