Husband and wife, Samba and Awa Manneh-Bah, have now graduated by each other’s side for the second time. They first graduated together in 2014 having studied nursing at Edinburgh Napier University and now graduate having studied their masters together in Healthcare Management this summer.
Originally from Gambia, and now British citizens, Samba and Awa have worked in the NHS and private sector since completing their nursing degrees and are extremely proud of this new milestone in their education. Gaining a masters is a big step for their careers, they did all of this whilst working as nurses full time and caring for their family.
Completing their masters didn’t come without its struggles, the course began during the pandemic and they juggled their full time careers with studying alongside caring for their three children.
Despite this they remained positive and say ‘we enjoyed every bit of it and glad we did it’ their goal is to always ‘be a positive role model to our kids’.
