“Previously I felt a like bystander to the action, doing the admin and paperwork while my colleagues, usually male, were out in the field, getting their hands dirty. But thanks to the opportunity a traineeship has given me, my life has changed completely. I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried something new. My proudest accomplishment so far is the condition of my work boots; each crease and stain
were earnt by hard, physical work.” – Lucy Mill
