Summary

A 42-year-old single mother of five, including a disabled son requiring round-the-clock care, is pursuing higher education through the University of Bristol's new 'micro-campus' scheme. The program brings university courses into local communities to improve access, and Charlotte is one of 14 women studying for a micro-qualification in entrepreneurship. She describes the experience as empowering and achievable, and says her children initially laughed when she told them she was going to university.
