First and foremost, I want to thank absolutely everyone for their tremendous support which has been amazing and even overwhelming at times

I'd like to kickstart this with a very sincere and hugely heartfelt thank you

I send this to each and every one of my friends, family, everyone of my fantastic NHS colleagues, all the folk in my Todmorden local community and lastly but certainly not least my lovely sponsors who without all of your collective support and encouragement I've received throughout this past year especially with the excessive covid pandemic demands on the entire NHS services, it has been your invaluable support that has kept me motivated to carry on regardless

For those who dont know me from Miss England, I'm a 27 year old Trainee Doctor working for NHS England

And I'm not afraid to say Ive experienced mental health issues of my own in the past which assists me greatly in helping to understand how the stresses and strains of just everyday life can lead some people down a downward spiral path

Having obtained the help I needed to climb out of a declintion of mental health I've completed my medical degree at Leeds University and now as mentioned before - I'm practicing as a junior doctor and pursing a specialistion in Phsychiatry
