@ellierosehuckle Doesn't surprise me! When I was in hospital a few years ago, I was told I couldn't have my background insulin because my blood sugar was 'too low'. I argued and argued but they refused to give me it. When the diabetes nurse visited me the next day, she was absolutely furious!
We’re paying tribute to former University of Sheffield lecturer, and Nobel prize winning chemist Sir J. Fraser Stoddart. Sir Fraser worked at the University for 20 years, and was a renowned scholar and a dedicated mentor to countless young scientists.

£770m. That’s the economic benefit international students contributed to the city of Sheffield in the 2021-2 academic year.
We’re calling on the government to recognise the economic, social and cultural value of international students and remove them from net migration figures.
