She’s a graduate of National Univerisity of Ireland, Galway [NUIG] where, as part of her undergraduate studies, she spent time in Tanzania offering Podiatry care.

Sarah wrote a short account of her time in Tanzania in NUIG’s November issue of their School of Podiatry newsletter. You can download the newsletter to read Sarah’s account in by clicking the button below.
