I came to physiotherapy a little later in life. After school I completed a degree in African Studies and Anthropology at the University of Birmingham. This suited my love of travel and fascination with people and history and taught me alot about the development of human societies, (including development of healthcare systems). After graduating, I moved to Bristol and worked at the Bristol City Museum and Art Galleries. My time here was fantastic and the ever changing travelling exhibitions and galleries were fascinating.
