My name is Salma, a final year medical student. I took the scenic route after personal circumstances prevented me from taking up my original offer to study medicine at 18. I have worked over 10 jobs to put myself through medical school. #LiveableNHSbursary 1/19🧵 
I’m the 1st in my family to go to university and from a widening participation background. Having completed a first degree in clinical sciences (1st class honours & top of my class) – I was locked out of funding aimed at widening participation students. 2/19
I often worked over full time hours + doing a full-time degree. This obviously took a hit to my mental & physical health. I survived by working, being savvy w/ money, hardship funds, the BMA trust fund, RMBF, discretionary funds, etc - all invasive processes. 3/19
