This is Us

Episode 16: Sedil

Care leavers and estranged students Season 3 Episode 5

In the latest episode of This is Us, Paige chats to Sedil, who’s in her final year at Newcastle University studying Civil Engineering. Sedil is going to be specialising in transport (think railways and airports) and, for her, being a woman in engineering is a big deal! 

Sedil and Paige talk about the differences between the North and South of England and how Sedil was keen to leave London for a fresh start but is looking forward to returning, to study for her Masters, taking with her all that she has learned and experienced at university so far.

 Their conversation is guided by Mac Miller, Avelino and Gaidaa and, throughout, touches on the subject of mental health. If you or anyone you know is struggling you can contact Mind at mind.org.uk
