Whilst working in an administration role at Barnardo’s, I successfully gained a Policy and Research Assistant post. During my role, I co-authored a key research report which was published externally. I can’t put into words how my studies have changed my life, they have opened so many doors for me and I am very proud of my achievements. Learning is a great way to change your life!
