Laura Campbell was an absolute delight…

Laura Campbell was an absolute delight to talk to! She gave me all the information I needed in precise detail, which helped make my decision to go on with course a no brainer. Laura made sure I understood everything and frequently asked if I had any questions before proceeding with the application. We also had a lovely hour long chat about animals(specifically dogs) which I don't get to do very often so it was a nice change. I am extremely happy I finally get to fulfill my lifelong dream and make real use of my skills and experiences.
