The Sunday Post ran an exclusive on the toolkit I’m developing to support people with intellectual difficulties to access cancer screening.

We’ll see if any other media pick up the press release over the next couple of days before graduation. Excited it’s getting out there! 😊

Honestly, does anyone actually enjoy statistics??*🙈 Higher Maths is the only exam I’ve ever failed & I think I have some sort of inability to understand anything other than basic math! Like, what even is a Mantel Haenszel Test of Trend?! 🤦🏼‍♀️😩

*I know some do, just let me rant during thesis-writing 😂

Doing uni work and asked Spotify to play the songs with lyrics, and was met with this??

I’m sorry, but I’m literally needing to take cheek from Spotify now too?! 🤨 And for £16.99 a month, no less… 😒
