After winning the 2014 Young Adult Learner award, I met WEA Chief Executive, Ruth Spellman, and spoke to her about my passion to help others engage with education.

I’m involved with an educational charity aimed at encouraging women to get into science and I think this is a fantastic opportunity to introduce people to the WEA. Through adult learners I’ve been in contact with MPs and organisations; I aim to use these contacts to promote the WEA.
