"I was like 'I'm fifty can I really do a foundation degree?' And here I am two years later, smashing it and next year I'm doing a bachelors degree. Honestly, it's not just a degree I'm getting. It's the people I've met, it's the guest speakers and it's the workshops. It's been loads of fun. We all love it and the tutors are fab and really supportive."
