I worked at Borno pharmacy as a counter assistant for 2 years and then i moved into the dispensary where I gained my nvq level 2 dispensary certificate. I was also a stop smoking advisor and healthy living representative. Unfortunately my dad became terminally ill in 2016 and my mum was also diagnosed with vascular dementia around the same time. I was cookin, cleaning and caring for both parents whilst working full time at the pharmacy and it was becoming too much, working in such a busy pharmacy, so I decided to work at a quieter pharmacy (Day Lewis). This enabled me to continue to care for my parents.
