My experience at Loughborough was unmatched. I truly appreciated all the help from my supervisors, the collegiate environment within the School, sharing an office with other PhD students who became good friends, as well as the support from the Doctoral College and Student Services.

I am now a freelance consultant in the WASH sector in low- and middle-income countries. I work with various organisations to advise on research processes, and I engage with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to explore how WASH can be inclusive of the needs of different people, such as people with incontinence and disabilities, perimenopausal women, girls, and a range of other groups. Doing a PhD is a journey, but it's worth it.
