King's College LondonHealth, Life and BiosciencesHeyy I’m Chloe, a current 2nd year Sports and Exercise Medical Science Student. I'm originally from Hong Kong but I moved to Germany when I was 7 and lived there for 11 years (yes I speak some German). My initial plan was to study medicine but I have always been passionate about sports so I decided Sports medicine would be a better fit. I plan to do a masters in Physiotherapy after my bachelors degree. The dream is to work for Chelsea FC as a physiotherapist and also to work with Formula 1 (travelling whilst working). Esha

University of SuffolkBSc (Hons) Mental Health NursingHey there! I'm Georgia, a second year mental health nursing student from Bury St. Edmunds. I chose to do this course after feeling like I was ready for my next step after absolutely loving my role as a healthcare assistant for the past two years. I am also the student representative for our cohort, which I am really enjoying! I like to keep myself busy and am very work motivated, so outside of studying, you'll probably find me outdoors. Doing something to do with my dog care business that I run alongside my degree. Overall I love helping people and animals however I can - that being said. If you have any questions about mental health nursing, UoS, being a mature student or anything else please do reach out and message me! Hanae
King's College LondonNursing with Registration as a Mental Health NurseI was born in Spain and moved to London when I was in Year 3. I didn’t speak much English back then, but I’ve always had a passion for helping people, which is what inspired me to study Mental Health Nursing at King’s College London a dream that I’m really enjoying. The people, the teaching, and the whole university experience have been amazing. In the future, I hope to become either a CBT therapist or a clinical psychologist so I can support others in improving their mental health. I know starting university can feel overwhelming, but with the right mindset and support, it’s a fantastic journey. If you’re considering KCL or healthcare studies, I’m happy to share tips and experiences to help you settle in and succeed! Hugh
