Please share and sign. Lost my amazing mum to this horrific disease just 7 weeks ago. We had 8 months with her.
Also lost our dear uncle in January 2021 after just 7 short weeks.
More should and could be done to save more lives. ❤️

So today I found out I passed my CIPR Diploma and am #ciprqualified
I just wish my mum was here to share the news with. Despite her illness she kept encouraging me to complete it. Mum this is for you and I hope I've made you proud.

28.8.23 the day my world changed forever. Heartbroken 💔 Mum I love and miss you so much x

I submitted my final assignment for my CIPR Diploma this week. It's been challenging, studying while working in NHS comms through a pandemic, dealing with my own mental health and coming to terms with my mums cancer diagnosis but I did it. And my mum is proud ❤️

So many issues that are often labelled 'PR disasters', when they are usually corporate failures/decisions that PR has to deal with. In some cases could be avoided (or at least reduced) if comms folk were involved from the start, not just told at the end to 'PR it'. urgh
