Mrs Midworth was born on 22 November 1943. She was married to Julian Midworth, who died in 1996. From at least the mid-1980s until her death, she lived at her farm, Banks Way House in Effingham, Surrey KT24 5JB, where she kept and bred several llamas.

Mrs Midworth was an active member of the British Llama and Alpaca Association, editor of the association’s magazine, the Camelid Chronicle, and a director of the claimant from before 1992 to 2003.

Peter Alexander Grossman was a friend of Mrs Midworth’s who, after her husband’s death, moved into a converted garage at the farm to help look after the llamas. He died on 27 March 2013 meaning that it is the proviso to clause 6 of the Will which is operative to dispose of residue.
