During my leave, I went to see the Korea exhibition at the British Museum. I felt emotional & proud to see my culture in the UK, as my cultural competency workshop highlights how important it is to recognize and celebrate each other’s cultures & differences ❤️🍂🥰

Just dropped my daughter off in Bristol for her university. I feel emotional thinking about how my little girl has grown up so much. She will be studying a midwifery course at the UWE & I am so proud of her. I know she will be an amazing midwife. Look forward to working with her in the NHS one day💕
