We can’t underestimate the impact the past two years have had on their mental health and wellbeing, so it’s really important to celebrate their achievements and they should be extremely proud.“We should also acknowledge the dedication shown by their lecturers. They have gone above and beyond to support their students, who will now be making their next steps onto higher education or employment with confidence.”
