At 11 she made her West End debut in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at The London Palladium, working with stars such as Michael Ball and Wayne Sleep and at 12 was offered a place at the Sylvia Young Theatre School, London.

She starred in Disney Channel UK's As the Bell Rings as "Lucy". Veal has a recurring role on Disney Channel Original Series Jessie, as Agatha and Angela in one episode of the series.
