As a child in school in a S.Wales mining valley I was told medicine was not for the likes of me! Luckily my grandfather said ‘the only person who can decide your future is YOU - so believe in yourself!’ I became a Consultant and Hon Professor in Edinburgh!

“I have no doubt that if we had gender parity at the decision-making levels around the world, at all levels, we would not have the number of wars we have today.”

Women belong👏 in all places👏 where decisions👏 are being made👏.
Today we remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg, US Supreme Court Justice.
#RBG was a champion for justice and paved the way for gender equality so more women can have a seat at the table.
Her legacy lives on.
