The Preston-based graduate said: “I wasn’t sure what career I wanted to follow but the UCLan biology programme offered the flexibility to study a variety of science-related topics.” The 25-year-old excelled on the foundation year programme but became pregnant and gave birth to her daughter Holly. She said: “I took a couple of years out to look after Holly and then returned to UCLan.
