Dr Becs Bradford left school with no qualifications and hopes to inspire others from similar backgrounds.
Dr Becs Bradford, who was in care as a child and did not sit her first GCSE until the age of 35, has graduated from the University of Bristol with a degree in medicine.
She worked as cabin crew, a personal trainer and in sales but her ambition was always to become a doctor. She enrolled on an access to medicine course, and drove a six-hour round trip to attend lessons while juggling three jobs. "I really believe that if your heart is in it, you can 100% do the crazy things you’ve always dreamed of," she said.
