@BBCRadioManc
I’ve been selected to take part in the BBC 100 Share Your Story project🥺 I’ll be going around schools in Sheffield to talk about my way in to radio📻 It’s different talking in front of a mic, to physically talking in front of people - but I’m excited to overcome the nerves🎤
Okay I took the plunge! After seeing so many inspirational journos on my timeline, talking about commission this and commission that - I've officially sent off 2 pitches! It's exciting and new territory for me, I just hope something comes off, I realise how tricky it can be!🥰
I just got my vaccine💉 I was in and out within 3 minutes! Now just seated in Jordanthorpe Meadowgreen Health Centre to make sure I have no immediate side effects! Every single staff here from the car parking attendants, to the people giving the vaccine and aftercare are LOVELY❤️
