SPONSORED: When the coronavirus pandemic forced countries around the world to go into lockdown, most of us did our bit by just staying at home and obeying the restrictions.
But some everyday heroes used that moment to step up. One was occupational therapy student Rachel Golby, 24, from Exeter, southwest England.
She chose to serve on the frontline – delivering personal care to the elderly in their homes. Her work wasn’t without sacrifice – she wasn’t able to see her girlfriend for three months.
But it also came with huge job satisfaction and inspiration for her future career. And when GSN and Pink Lady® Apples asked people in the UK to nominate their everyday heroes from the pandemic, Rachel’s mom, Sue Gannon, put her name forward.
