What apprenticeship have you undertaken/are currently undertaking? 
I am currently doing the Veterinary Care Support apprenticeship. 

Why did you choose this apprenticeship? 
I have worked at Vets for Pets for almost 9 years working as front of house, but I always wanted to be a veterinary nurse. As a single mum this was not possible in the past but now my children have gotten older, I decided to get the ball rolling and begin the career I have always wanted.  

What are the benefits? 
For me, the major benefit is earning whilst you are learning. I can study for my apprenticeship and work within a supportive environment, all whilst earning a wage. 

How has the apprenticeship helped your career? 
I have loved progressing my career at Blackpool Warbreck and learning new things every day.  

Would you recommend doing an apprenticeship to others? 
Yes, I would absolutely recommend an apprenticeship to others.
