Since leaving school, I always wanted to go to college to do beauty - as it is a real passion of mine - but it was never the right time, until now.

I am in my first year of Access to Beauty Therapy and before starting college, I was a full-time stay at home single mum looking after my son. I also qualified as a nail technician in 2019.

I love everything about the course, there is not one thing I dislike. My favourite treatments so far would be the body art, as I love how creative you can be. I also really enjoy the calmness of performing facials.

I feel the campus is very friendly and the help you receive when needed is amazing - it's a great environment to be in.

My advice would be to anyone wanting to come to UHI Perth is do it, you won't regret it. I am a single mother to a five-year-old and was worried how I would manage, but the support I have received is amazing. I also want to put it across that you are never too old. I myself am a more mature student, but everyone is so welcoming and it's never too late to learn your passion.

After my course is finished, I plan to start my own business with all the skills I will have learned.
